A wooden board that is 108 inches long is cut into two equal parts. What is the length of each part in feet? (feet : inches = 1 : 12
4.5 feet. Divide 108 by twelve and you find out that the board is 9 feet long. Half of 9 is 4.5. Therefore, each piece is 4.5 feet long.
Given is :
The length of the wooden board is given as = 108 inches.
As it is cut in 2 equal parts, it becomes \(\frac{108}{2}= 54\) inches each
We have to calculate the length of each part in feet, so divide 54 by 12.
12 inches = 1 feet
54 inches = \(\frac{54}{12}\) = 4.5
So, the length of each part is 4.5 feet.
