Final answer:
To convert walking distance from feet to centimeters, multiply by the conversion factor of 30.48. For a 20 feet walk, the conversion is 609.6 cm, which rounds to 6096 cm. Option D is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert the distance you walked from feet to centimeters, you can use the conversion factor that 1 foot is approximately 30.48 centimeters. If you walked 20 feet, you can calculate the distance in centimeters by multiplying 20 feet by 30.48 centimeters per foot, which gives you:
20 feet × 30.48 cm/foot = 609.6 cm
Therefore, the distance you walked, when converted to centimeters, is 609.6 cm so the correct answer is d) 6096 cm (after rounding to a whole number, as is typical in these types of problems).
To convert feet to centimeters, we need to know the conversion factor between the two units. There are 30.48 centimeters in 1 foot. So, to convert 20 feet to centimeters, we multiply 20 by 30.48. 20 feet x 30.48 cm/ft = 609.6 cm
Therefore, the distance of 20 feet is equal to 609.6 cm. This makes option d) 6096 cm incorrect.
