Question

Add 2yd 1 ft 8 in. + 1yd 2ft 9 in.

Answer 1

is this question a bit about using approximations or just simple adding?

Answer 2

idk sry i think just adding

Answer 3

anyways.... 8 in +9 in = 1 ft 5 inches. now this 1 foot gets added as a carry-over (remember the thing we studied in kindergarten?) to the foot addition.... so now feet add.----> (1+2+1) = 4 feet. and yards add up to 3.

so your answer is 3 yds 4 ft 5 inches.

SIMPLE METHOD: convert everything to inches, add up, and re-convert as desired.
