Day Two                  1/2 foot                     0.5 feet

Day Three                1/2 foot                     0.5

1.67 is actually 1 1/6 feet. When mulctiplied by three 1 1/6 * 3 = 3 and 1/2 feet                                    

Convert 6.5 feet to inches

6.5 * 12 = 78 inches.

Answer

The rug was 78 inches long
