Answer:

7 in

Step-by-step explanation: This is the easiest way to explain it if you're curious.

4 is in feet and 336 is in inches

1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches, when you turn 4 into inches (4x12) you get 48.

To get the height all you do now is 336in divided by 48in getting you to the answer of 7.

Math is hard but just getting the answers online without an explanation is more confusing! Good luck. :)

Answer:

D. 7 in.

Explanation:

A = bh

(convert 4 ft into inches, that means 4 ft = 48 in)

336 = (48 in) h

Divide by both sides:

336/48 in = 48 in x h/48 in

in other words just divide 336 and 48 and we would be getting the final answer of 7 in = h or just 7 in.
