Use the ratio 1 foot= 30.48 centimeters tall. How many feet tall is he?
To find out how many feet tall he is, we need to know the measurement in centimeters.
To determine how many feet tall someone is using the given ratio of 1 foot = 30.48 centimeters, you need to know the height in centimeters. Once you have the height in centimeters, you can divide it by 30.48 to convert it to feet.
Let's assume the person's height is 152 centimeters.
To convert centimeters to feet using the given ratio:
1. Divide the height in centimeters by 30.48:
152 cm / 30.48 cm/ft = 4.986 feet
Therefore, the person is approximately 4.986 feet tall.
To find how many feet tall he is, you need to divide his height in centimeters by the conversion factor.
Let's say he is X centimeters tall.
To convert centimeters to feet, divide by the conversion factor:
X centimeters ÷ 30.48 centimeters/foot
Simplifying the expression, we have:
X ÷ 30.48
Therefore, he is X ÷ 30.48 feet tall.
