Question

Miyoko bought 3 packages of tape that each had 1 yard 2 feet of tape in them how many inches of tape did miyoko buy?

Answer 1

Answer: 180 inch

Explanation:

Given

Miyoko bought 3 packages of tape

Each tape has 1 yard and 2 feet of tape

`1\ \text{yard}=3\ \text{foot}`

`1\ \text{ft}=12\ \text{inch}`

converting yard to feet

`\Rightarrow 3+2=5\ ft`

Convert feet to the inch

`\Rightarrow 5* 12=60\ \text{inch}`

For 3 tapes, it is

`\Rightarrow 60* 3=180\ \text{inch}`

Thus, the total tape is
`180\ \text{inch}`
