To convert Sarah's height from feet and inches to centimeters, we first need to convert her height to inches and then to centimeters.
1. Let's convert her height to inches:
Sarah's height is 5 feet and 2 inches. Since there are 12 inches in a foot, we multiply 5 feet by 12 inches/foot to get: 5 feet * 12 inches/foot = 60 inches
Adding the 2 inches, her total height in inches is: 60 inches + 2 inches = 62 inches
2. Now, let's convert her height to centimeters:
Since there are 2.54 centimeters in an inch, we multiply 62 inches by 2.54 centimeters/inch to get: 62 inches * 2.54 centimeters/inch = 157.48 centimeters
Therefore, Sarah's height would be 157.48 centimeters.
