DAN WAS WALKING FROM ONE END OF THE MALL TO THE OTHER END. HE TOOK THE FOLLOWING MEASUREMENTS OF FIVE STOREFRONTS: 23 FEET 11 INCHES, 25 FEET 2 INCHES, 18 FEET 3 INCHES, 28 FEET 8 INCHES, AND 32 FEET 4 INCHES.IF DAN ADDED ALL THE MEASUREMENTS, WHAT WOULD BE THE TOTAL DISTANCE.
128 FEET 4 INCHES
To find the total distance that Dan walked, we need to add up all the measurements of the store fronts.
First, let's convert all the measurements to a consistent unit. Since all the measurements are given in feet and inches, let's convert everything to just inches.
To convert feet to inches, we know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches.
Here are the given measurements converted to inches:
- 23 feet 11 inches = (23 * 12) + 11 = 275 inches
- 25 feet 2 inches = (25 * 12) + 2 = 302 inches
- 18 feet 3 inches = (18 * 12) + 3 = 219 inches
- 28 feet 8 inches = (28 * 12) + 8 = 344 inches
- 32 feet 4 inches = (32 * 12) + 4 = 388 inches
Now, let's add up all the measurements:
Total distance = 275 + 302 + 219 + 344 + 388 = 1528 inches
Therefore, the total distance that Dan walked from one end of the mall to the other end is 1528 inches.
