The length of the alligator is 82.8 inches
Further explanation
An alligator is 2.3 yards, convert this to inches
We know that:
[tex]\boxed {1 yard = 36 inches\ }\\[/tex]
or we can write them in fraction:
[tex]\boxed {\frac{1 yard}{36 inches} = \frac{2.3 yards}{x}\ }\\ \boxed {x = 2.3 \times\ 36\ }\\ \boxed {x = 82.8\ }[/tex]
When converting unit, we can use this three step:
- write the conversion in fraction
- multiply
- cancel any unit that are both top and bottom
Here are another units of length:
[tex]\boxed {1 inch = 2.54cm\ }\\ \boxed {1 foot = 12 inches\ }\\ \boxed {1 yard = 3 feet\ }\\ \boxed {1 yard = 90 cm\ }[/tex]
