Answer
$\frac{5}{2}$ ft or 2.5 ft
Work Step by Step
30 in. = ft
Use a unit fraction with foot (the unit for your answer) in the numerator, and inches (the unit being changed) in the denominator. Because 12 inches (in.) = 1 foot (ft), the necessary unit fraction is
$\frac{1 foot}{12 inches}$
Multiply 30 in. times the unit fraction.
30 * $\frac{1 foot}{12 inches}$ = $\frac{5}{2}$ ft = 2.5 ft
