A box is 50 cm long. Which of these is closest to the length of this box in feet? (1 inch = 2.54 cm)

1.02 feet

1.17 feet

1.64 feet

4.15 feet

If you would like to transform 50 cm to feet, you can do this using the following steps:

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

1 inch ... 2.54 cm

x inches = ? ... 50 cm

1 * 50 = 2.54 * x

50 = 2.54 * x

x = 50 / 2.54

x = 19.69 inches

1 foot = 12 inches

1 foot ... 12 inches

y feet = ? ... 19.69 inches

1 * 19.69 = 12 * y

19.69 = 12 * y

y = 19.69 / 12

y = 1.64 feet

The correct result would be 1.64 feet.
