Question

One box is 4ft 9 inches tall the other box is 3ft tall 3inches the microwave is 3ft 4 inches tall how tall are they combined

Answer 1

1. Convert all measurements to inches for uniformity:
• First box: 4 feet 9 inches = (4 * 12 inches) + 9 inches = 48 inches + 9 inches = 57 inches
• Second box: 3 feet 3 inches = (3 * 12 inches) + 3 inches = 36 inches + 3 inches = 39 inches
• Microwave: 3 feet 4 inches = (3 * 12 inches) + 4 inches = 36 inches + 4 inches = 40 inches
2. Add the heights together:
Combined height = Height of first box + Height of second box + Height of microwave
Combined height = 57 inches + 39 inches + 40 inches
Combined height = 136 inches!
