Answer:
[tex]68 \dfrac{4}{5}[/tex] inch
[tex]5 \dfrac{11}{15}[/tex] feet
Step-by-step explanation:
1 inch = (1/4) hand
⇒ 1 hand = 4 inch
The height of average Clydesdale = [tex]17 \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] hand
= [tex](17 \dfrac{1}{5}) \times 4[/tex] inch
= [tex]68 \dfrac{4}{5}[/tex] inch -----(1)
=[tex]\frac{344}{5}[/tex] inch
=[tex]\frac{344}{5 \times 12}[/tex] feet
(since 12 inch = 1 foot)
= [tex]5 \dfrac{11}{15}[/tex] feet -----(2)
