Jeremy has three pencils. One pencil is 9.36 inches long. The second pencil is 6.7 inches long. The third pencil is 8.025 inches long. Will placing the pencils end to end make a total length greater than 2 feet?

The total length from putting the pencils together is slightly greater than 2 feet. The difference is 0.0071 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

One pencil is 9.36 inches long, the second pencil is 6.7 inches long, the third pencil is 8.025 inches long.

Total length of all these pencils = 9.36 inches + 6.7 inches + 8.025 inches

= 24.085 inches

12 Inches = 1 feet

24.085 inches = 24.085/12 feet

= 2.0071 feet

The total length from putting the pencils together is slightly greater than 2 feet. The difference is 0.0071 feet.

Yes it does equal more the 2 feet
