There are 48 inches and 4 feet what is represented by the equation 4Y equals 48X determine the number of inches per foot

To determine the number of inches per foot, first, we need to find the value of Y when X is 1 (as 1 foot equals X inches).

Given the equation 4Y = 48X, when X = 1:

4Y = 48(1)
4Y = 48
Y = 48/4
Y = 12

So, 1 foot is equal to 12 inches.
