Shane is measuring a shelf. It is 24 inches long. He measures again to find the number of feet. Will the length of the shelf be less than, greater than, or the same length in feet?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Same length

24 ÷ 2=12

There is 12 inches in a foot

1 + 1= 2 ft

24 inches = 2 feet

Answer:

The length of the shelf will be less than 24 in feet. It will be 2 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inches are a smaller unit than feet, meaning that when something is measured in inches, the numerical amount of inches will be higher than the numerical amount of feet. The ratio is 12 inches to 1 foot, meaning that even though the length may be the exact same, inches represents the length with a higher numerical value and feet represent the length with a lower numerical value.
