Question

If 1 meter = 3.28 feet, 4/5 of a foot is approximately what fraction of a meter?

Answer 1

4/5 of a foot is approximately
`(24.39)/(100)` of a meter.

Explanation:

This question can be solved by a simple rule of three.

A meter is 3.28 feet. 4/5 = 0.8 feet are how many meters(as a fraction)?

So

1 meter - 3.28 feet

x meter - 0.8 feet

`3.28x = 0.8`

`x = 0.2439`

So 4/5 of a foot is approximately
`(24.39)/(100)` of a meter.
