No, your answer should be,


\Huge\boxed{288}

To convert feet into inches, you multiply the length value by 12. Your mistake is you got it mixed-up. 24ft doesn't equal 2in, but 24in equals 2ft, because instead of multiplying 12, you divide by 12.

24ft → 288in

24 × 12 = 288

24in → 2ft

24 ÷ 12 = 2

Hence, 24ft doesn't equal 2in.
