OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[\quad1[\text{ft}]=12[\text{in}]\\ \frac{1[\text{ft}]}{12[\text{in}]}=\frac{12[\text{in}]}{12[\text{in}]}\\ \frac{1[\text{ft}]}{12[\text{in}]}=1\] \[\quad185[\text{in}]=185[\text{in}]\times1\\ \qquad\qquad=185[\text{in}]\times\frac{1[\text{ft}]}{12[\text{in}]}\\ \qquad\qquad=\frac{185\times1}{12}\frac{[\cancel{\text{in}]}[\text{ft}]}{[\cancel{\text{in}]}}\\\qquad\qquad=\frac{185\times1}{12}[\text{ft}]\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

185[in] = 180[in] +5[in] 185/12[ft] = 180/12[ft] +5[in]
