$\frac{120}{12} = 10 feet$ $120/12 = 10 " feet"$

$1 f t = 12 inches$ $1 ft= 12" inches"$

Therefore to convert a number of inches into feet, divide by 12.

Therefore: $\frac{120}{12} = 10 feet$ $120/12 = 10 " feet"$

A sort of cheating approach. Easier to do the calculation in your head.

1 foot is 12 inches

so 120 inches to feet is:

$\frac{120}{12}$ $120/12$

Think of this as:

$\frac{12 \times 10}{12} \to \frac{12}{12} \times 10 \to 1 \times 10 = 10 f e e t$ $(12xx10)/12" " ->" " 12/12xx10" " ->" " 1xx10" " =" "10feet$
