Answer: 14 feet 4 inches

Explanation:

Given: The length of the first table = 7 feet 7 inches

The length of the second table = 6 feet 9 inches

The total length of two tables = 7 feet 7 inches + 6 feet 9 inches

= (7+6) feet (7+9) inches

=13 feet 16 inches

Since 1 feet = 12 inches

The total length of two tables = 13 feet+ (12 inches +4 inches)

=13 feet +( 1 feet +4 inches)

= 14 feet 4 inches

Hence, the total length of the two tables = 14 feet 4 inches
