\(\frac{70*1}{2.54}\)
=27.559 inches
12 inches is equivalent to 1 foot 
27.559 is equivalent to?
\(\frac{27.559*1}{12}\)
= 2.29
=2.30 feet

Answer:

4th option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of the box = 70 cm

To find: Length in the foot.

We know that

1 inch = 2.54 cm

1 foot = 12 inch

So,

1 foot = 12 × 2.54 inch = 30.48 cm

So, 70 cm = \(\frac{70}{30.48}=2.29=2.30(approx.)\)

Therefore, 4th option is correct.
