Question

Convert 9.3 dingleberries to centimeters. Show work

Answer 1

1 dingleberry (db)=4 spans, 2 span= 5 hippos, 7 hippos=4 inches, 1 inch=2.54cm

 

(9.3 dingleberries)(4 spans/dingleberry) = 37.2 spans

 

(37.2 spans)(5/2 hippos/span) = 93 hippos

 

(93 hippos)(4/7 inches/hippo) = 53.14286 inches

 

(53.14286 inches)(2.54 cm/inch) = 134.983 cm

 

Approximately 135 cm
