Give the answer in feet and inches in its simplest form. (I am having trouble converting the mixed numbers)
6ft.7in. 47in. 9ft.11in. 13 3/4ft. 18ft.
9 2/3ft. 17in.
---------------
Convert each one to inches;
Add the inches:
Divide by 12 to get the number of feet plus some number of inches.
=========================================
6'7" = 79 inches
47" = 47 inches
9'11" =119 inches
[13(3/4)]' =165 inches
18' =216 inches
[9 2/3]' =116 inches
17' = 17 inches
=====================
Add to get: 759"
= 63 ft 3 inches
==================
