Answer: 5/6

Explanation:

If you chose \(\frac{5}{6}\) foot, you are correct. If you chose 10 feet, you forgot to convert inches to feet. If you chose 1 foot, you thought that there were 10 inches in a foot. If you chose \(\frac{1}{10}\)foot, you wrote 1 over the number of inches because you were unsure how to write fractions in terms of feet.
