    If you meant 12 1/4 inches long then your 4 feet and 1 inch long or 49 inches.

    12 1/4 times 4 is the length of Jeff's scarf.

    Convert 12 1/4 to an improper fraction by multiplying 12 by 4 and adding 1.

    12 (4) = 48 + 1 = 49. Add previous fraction denominator. 49/4

    49/4 * 4/1 = ?

    Multiply across:

    49 * 4 = 196 and 4 * 1 = 4

    196/4

    Simplify:

    Let's see if 196 can be divided by 4to get a whole number:

    196 : 4 = 49

    Jeff's scarf is approximately 49 inches long.
