its 1 foot 9 inches

Kaiya Rocha · Answer 2

1 ft 9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of the flag, we simply need to add the fractions. Because all the lengths have the same denominator, we only need to add the numerators.

5 + 3 + 6 = 14. The flag is 14/8 feet long.

To simplify this, divide 14 : 8 = 1.75

This means the flag is 1 foot and 9 inches.
