Answer:

28 in

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to convert the mixed number 2 1/3 ft to fraction, so we can use the following equation:


A(b)/(c)=((A* c)+b)/(c)

Then, 2 1/3 is equivalent to:


2(1)/(3)=((2*3)+1)/(3)=(6+1)/(3)=(7)/(3)

Now, taking into account that 1 ft is equivalent to 12 in, we can convert 7/3 ft to in as:


(7)/(3)\text{ ft }*\frac{12\text{ in}}{1\text{ ft}}=(7*12)/(3)=(84)/(3)=28\text{ in}

Therefore, the answer is 28 in.
