Question

A floor tile is 2ft wide . Convert the width to inches

Answer 1

Answer: 24 inches

Explanation:

First, remember that 1 ft is equal to 12 in

Then, if 1 ft = 12 in

1 = 12in/1ft

this means that we can write a constant:

C = 12in/1 in

and C = 1, then we can write the width 2ft as:

2ft = 2ft*C = 2ft*12in/1ft = 24in
