Complete Question:

Write a program that contains the following two methods:

/** Convert from feet to meters */

public static double footToMeter(double foot)

/** Convert from meters to feet */

public static double meterToFoot(double meter)

The formula for the conversion is: meter = 0.305 * foot and foot = 3.279 * meter Write a test program that invokes these methods. PLEASE WRITE IN JAVA.

Answer:

//Declare the class

public class Converter{

//method footToMeter that receives the foot as parameter

public static double footToMeter(double foot){

//declare a double variable called meter,

//to hold the result of the conversion

double meter;

//using the given formula, conver the foot to meter and

//store the result in the meter variable

meter = 0.305 * foot;

//return the result stored in meter

return meter;

}

//method meterToFoot that receives the meter as parameter

public static double meterToFoot(double meter){

//declare a double variable called foot,

//to hold the result of the conversion

double foot;

//using the given formula, convert the meter to foot and

//store the result in the foot variable.

foot = 3.279 * meter;

//return the result stored in foot.

return foot;

}

//Test program to invoke those methods

public static void main(String []args){

//Convert 120 feet to meter

System.out.println("120 feet to meter is " + footToMeter(120));

//Convert 36 meters to foot

System.out.println("36 meters to feet is " + meterToFoot(36));

}

} //End of class declaration

Sample Output:

120 feet to meter is 36.6

36 meters to feet is 118.044

Step-by-step explanation:

The above code has been written in Java and it contains comments explaining each line of the code. Please go through the comments.

There is also a sample output from the run of the code.

An screenshot containing the program and the output has also been attached to this response.
