A footbridge is 5 feet wide and is built with wood planks that are 6 inches wide. How many planks wide is the path?

Here we have to know the conversion between feet and inches.

1 Feet = 12 inches (This is given and is to be known)

So the 5 feet wide footbridge when converted to inches would be about 5*12 = 60 inches

The width of the footbridge in inches = 60 inches

Each wooden plank is 6 inches,

So the number of wooden planks that are required to build the foot bridge of 60 inches = 60/6 = 10 planks

Hence, the path path is 10 planks wide
