Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert inches to millimeters, we multiply the inch value by 25.4 (since 1 inch is equal to 25.4 mm).

So, 2 3/4 inches can be written as (2 + 3/4) inches = (8/4 + 3/4) inches = 11/4 inches.

Multiplying 11/4 inches by 25.4 gives:

(11/4) × 25.4 = 70.175 mm

Rounding off to the nearest millimeter gives:

70 mm (since 0.175 is closer to 0 than 1)

Therefore, the best choice is C (70 mm).
