Final answer:

To convert 1100 cm to feet, divide by 2.54 to get inches, then divide by 12 to get feet, resulting in approximately 36.09 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the length from centimeters to feet, we need to use the conversion factor that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters, and there are 12 inches in a foot. Since the wall in question is 1100 cm long, the first step is to convert centimeters to inches:

  1. Divide 1100 cm by 2.54 cm/inch to get the length in inches.
  2. Next, divide that result by 12 inches/foot to get the length in feet.

Let's follow the steps to find the length in feet:

  1. 1100 cm ÷ 2.54 cm/inch = 433.07 inches
  2. 433.07 inches ÷ 12 inches/foot = 36.09 feet

Therefore, the length of the wall in feet is approximately 36.09 feet.
