    Answer: She will need 142 ft of curtain.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, first we have to convert the length of the curtain from inches to foot.

    Since 1 inch = 1/12ft

    For 24 inches:

    24 inches x 1/12 = 2 ft

    Since the company wants to make 71 curtains, we have to multiply the length of each curtain (2ft) by 71.

    2ft x 71 = 142ft

    She will need 142 ft of curtain.

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
