Question

Paul took 6 blocks and arranged them in a pile. If each block is 4 inches in height. How many feet high is the pile that Paul made?

Answer 1

The pile is 2 feet high.

Explanation:

There are 6 blocks, each block is 4 inches in height. That means the total height is:

6×4=24 inches

Because the question asked for the answer in feet, you have to convert the 24 inches into feet:

24 inches=2 feet

Answer 2

6x4 is 24, 24 inches to ft is 2 ft, since 12in is 1ft.
