Answer:
197 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Three dressers are placed side by side.
One dresser is 4 feet 8 inches wide, means = 4.8 feet
Another is 5 feet 11 inches wide, means = 5.11 feet
And the third is 5 feet 10 inches wide, means = 5.10 feet
Question asked:
How wide are they combined?
Solution:
To calculate combined width of dresser, first of all we will convert it into inches then we will simply add each width of dresser.
1 feet = 12 inches
4 feet = 12 [tex]\times[/tex] 4 = 48 inches + 8 inches = 56 inches
Width of one dresser = 56 inches
Width of another dresser = 12 [tex]\times[/tex] 5 = 60 + 11 = 71 inches
Width of third dresser = 12 [tex]\times[/tex] 5 = 60 + 10 = 70 inches.
combined width of dresser = 56 inches + 71 inches + 70 inches
= 197 inches.
Thus, combined width of dresser are 197 inches.
