Multiply the length of one section by the number of sections.
6 feet 3 inches
Practice makes perfect
We are given that the pipe is divided into five equal sections, and we want to evaluate the length of the pipe. To do this we should multiply the length of one section, 15 inches, by the number of sections.
5* 15in=75in
Now we will rewrite the length using the feet and inches. Let's recall that there are 12 inches in one feet.
75in=6*12in+3in=6ft3in
The length of the pipe is 6 feet 3 inches.
