Question

Hello, could you please help me solve this problem and show my work.

Answer 1

Firstly, note that 1 feet = 12 inches

Therefore,

`\begin{gathered} 2feet=2*12inches \\ =24\text{ inches} \end{gathered}`

Hence,

`(1)/(3)\text{ of 2 f}eet\text{ = }(1)/(3)\text{ of 24 inches}`

Therefore, it is solved as

`(1)/(3)*24=8`

The answer is 8 inches.
