Question

Pete cuts 3 feet from a ​7-foot length of rope. Then he cuts 18 inches from the rope. How many inches of rope are​ left? ASAP PLEASEE

Answer 1

Answer:

30 inches of rope left

Step by step solved:

Pete cuts a total of 3 feet + 18 inches = (3 x 12) inches + 18 inches = 54 inches from the rope.

Initially, the rope is 7 feet x 12 inches/foot = 84 inches long.

After cutting 54 inches from the rope,

there are 84 - 54 = 30 inches of rope left.

Therefore, Pete is left with 30 inches of rope.

Answer 2

7 ft is 84 inches, 3ft is 36 inches

84 - 36 = 48

cuts off 18 more inches

48 - 18 = 30 inches of rope remain
