Question

Six pipes are laid in end to end to form a row. Each pipe is 9 1/3 inches long. How long is the row of pipes in feet?

Answer 1

9x6=54 inches
1/3 x 6 = 2 inches
56 inches
56/12= 4.67

Answer 2

• 4 2/3 ft

-----------------------------

There are 6 pipes each of 9 1/3 in long.

Total length is:

• 6 * 9 1/3 =
• 6*9 + 6*1/3 =
• 54 + 2 =
• 56 in

Convert the total length to feet considering 1 foot = 12 in:

• 56 in =
• 56/12 ft =
• 4 8/12 ft =
• 4 2/3 ft
