To convert feet and inches into inches, you need to know that:
- 1 foot is equal to 12 inches.
- So, 5 feet can be converted into inches by multiplying by 12.
Here’s the breakdown:
- Convert the feet to inches: 5 feet x 12 inches/foot = 60 inches.
- Now, add the additional 3 inches: 60 inches + 3 inches = 63 inches.
Therefore, 5 feet 3 inches is equal to 63 inches.
