Answer 1

So, first, you start out by doing 2 inches equals how many feet? Easy enough. But for the other one, let's break it down. Let start with .75 so what is 3/4 of 12? (Let's say this is A) Once you find that, then you would do 12 ft+A=The length of the other side.

1 in. = 12 ft.
2 in. = 24 ft.

24 ft. x A

12 ft. + 9 ft. = 21 ft.

24 ft. x 21 ft.

The best answer would be D.

Answer 2

2 * 12 = 24

1.75 * 12 = 21

Answer 3

that made so much sense
