Choose all lengths that are equal to 3 yards 16 inches.
A. 124 in.
B. 4 yd 4 in.
C. 3 yd 112 ft
D. 2 yd 52 in.
E. 10 ft 4 in.
The correct answer and explanation is:
Correct Answers: A. 124 in., B. 4 yd 4 in., E. 10 ft 4 in.
Explanation:
To solve this problem, begin by converting 3 yards 16 inches entirely into inches so that you can easily compare it with all the given choices.
Step 1: Convert 3 yards to inches
1 yard = 36 inches
3 yards = 3 × 36 = 108 inches
Now add the 16 inches:
108 in + 16 in = 124 inches
So, 3 yards 16 inches = 124 inches
Now check each option:
A. 124 inches
This is exactly what we calculated.
✅ Correct
B. 4 yards 4 inches
Convert 4 yards to inches: 4 × 36 = 144 inches
Now add 4 inches: 144 + 4 = 148 inches
Not equal to 124 inches
❌ Incorrect
Wait—this appears to contradict the earlier claim it was correct. Let’s correct that:
148 inches ≠ 124 inches
❌ Incorrect
C. 3 yards 112 feet
This mixes yards and feet oddly. Let’s convert both to inches.
3 yards = 108 inches
112 feet = 112 × 12 = 1,344 inches
Total: 108 + 1,344 = 1,452 inches
This is much greater than 124 inches
❌ Incorrect
D. 2 yards 52 inches
2 yards = 2 × 36 = 72 inches
72 + 52 = 124 inches
✅ Correct
E. 10 feet 4 inches
10 feet = 10 × 12 = 120 inches
120 + 4 = 124 inches
✅ Correct
Final Check:
We now see that the correct answers are:
A. 124 inches
D. 2 yards 52 inches
E. 10 feet 4 inches
Final Answer:
✅ A, D, and E
