Question 371498: A house has 60 steps between the first floor and the third floor.
Each step is 4 inches high.
What is the distance in feet between the first floor and the third floor?
Note: 12 inches = 1 feet. Answer by Aust05(12) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since there are 60 steps and each step is 4 inches high multiply 60 by 4 to get 240 inches or the total distance. Now divide 240 by 12 to get the answer in feet. 240/12 = 20. So the total distance is 20 feet
