Question: A feather is floating 76.2 cm off the ground. How many feet off the ground is the feather?
Answer: 2.5 feet
Solution:
First, we convert centimeters to inches. There are 2.54 centimeters per inch, so 76.2 centimeters is 76.2 ÷ 2.54 = 30 inches. There are 12 inches in a foot, so 30 inches is 30 ÷ 12 = 2.5 feet.
