Given:
Susie's dog is 2 feet tall. When she measures her dog in inches he was 24 inches.
To find:
Why is there an increase in inches.
Solution:
It is given that Susie's dog is 2 feet tall.
We know that,
1 feet = 12 inches
Using this conversion, we get
2 feet = 2×12 inches
2 feet = 24 inches
So, the measures 2 feet and 24 inches are equal.
Therefore, if Susie's dog is 2 feet tall then he is 24 inches tall because both of these measure are equal.
