A small rug is 36 inches long. Its width is 2/3 of its length. What is the width of the rug in feet?

THANK YOU!

To find the width of the rug in feet, we first need to convert the length of the rug from inches to feet. Then, we can calculate the width of the rug.

There are 12 inches in 1 foot. Therefore, to convert the length of the rug from inches to feet, we divide the length by 12.

36 inches ÷ 12 inches/foot = 3 feet

Now that we know the length of the rug in feet is 3, we can find the width of the rug.

The width of the rug is 2/3 of its length. To calculate this, we multiply the length by 2/3.

Width = 3 feet × 2/3
Width = 6/3 feet
Width = 2 feet

Therefore, the width of the rug in feet is 2 feet.

(2/3) * 36 = _________ inches
