40 percent of 10 inches is how many sixths of 2 feet?

Answer 1

What a strangely-phrased question.

First, let's see what both values actually are.....

A) 40% of any number can be found by multiplying that number by 0.4

In this cast 10 multiplied by 0.4 = 4

So 40% of 10 inches is 4 inches.

B) 2 feet = 24 inches

1/6 of 24 inches = 4 inches

So, 40% of 10 inches is one-sixth of 2 feet
