Explanation / Answer

1) The length of the room is 120 inches, width of the room 72 inches and height of the room is 84 inches

a) Since 1 inch = 2.54 cm,

So length = 120 x 2.54=304.8 cm

Width = 72 x 2.54 = 182.88 cm

Height = 84 x 2.54 = 213.36 cm

The same result is obtained by measurements

B) Using 12 inches= 1 feet, We have the above measurements in feets as

Length=120(1/12) =10 feet

Width =72 (1/12)=6 feet

height =84 (1/12) =7 feet

Similalrly using 63,360 inches = 1 mile , 10,000 inches =254 meters, 10 inches =254 millimeter

and 10,000,000 inches =1 kilometer

WE can get other conversions as well
