Example Question #3104 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Quantitative Reasoning

How many feet are in $144\ inches?$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ foot=12\ inches$ , and we can use as our unknown.

$\frac{1\ foot}{12\ inches}=\frac{x\ feet}{144\ inches}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate the on one side.

$12\ inches\times x\ feet= 1\ foot \times 144\ inches$

$12\ feet= \frac{1\ foot \times 144\ inches}{12\ inches}$

The $\yards$ $\ inches$ will cancel and we are left with $12\ feet$

Example Question #13 : Measurement & Data

How many yards are in $180\ inches?$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ yard=36\ inches$ , and we can use as our unknown.

$\frac{1\ yard}{36\ inches}=\frac{x\ yards}{180\ inches}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate the on one side.

$36\ inches\times x\ yards= 1\ yard \times 180\ inches$

$5\ yards= \frac{1\ yard \times 180\ inches}{36\ inches}$

The $\yards$ $\ inches$ will cancel and we are left with $5\ yards$
