10 inches.
10/12 ====
50 feet.
There are 12 inches in one foot. Therefore, 5/6, or five sixths, of a foot is equal to 10 inches.
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
5/6 = 0.8333 ... By definition, 1% = 0.01. 10%= 0.1 therefore 5/6 ~ 83.33%
