(c) The Statue of Liberty is 151 ft tall. Calculate its height in meters.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the conversion factor between feet and meters. The conversion factor is 1 foot = 0.3048 meters.
Set up the conversion equation using the conversion factor. Multiply the height in feet by the conversion factor to convert it to meters.
Express the equation mathematically: \( \text{Height in meters} = \text{Height in feet} \times 0.3048 \).
Substitute the given height of the Statue of Liberty (151 ft) into the equation: \( \text{Height in meters} = 151 \times 0.3048 \).
Perform the multiplication to find the height in meters. This will give you the height of the Statue of Liberty in meters.
