Answer:
118 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
So, you'd start by converting everything to the same unit. In this case, it would make sense to do inches.
For the first term
4 yards is equal to 12 feet. (1 yard is 3 feet, so yardX3=feet)
12 feet is equal to 144 inches. (1 foot is 12 inches, so feetX12=inches)
144+6inches that you already have is 150 inches.
For the second term
2 feet is equal to 24 inches (1 foot is 12 inches, so feetX12=inches)
24+8inches that you already have is 32 inches
So, you now have 150in-32in
That's just simple subtraction, and you get 118 inches left.
To convert your answer to feet or yards
divide by 12 to get feet
once you have feet, divide that by 3 to get yards
Sorry if i made a math error, but you should still be able to walk yourself through this and other problems like it now! Hope I helped!
