How do I find the perimeter of a triangle with sides 3ft 8in., 2ft 10in., and 4 ft?

Formula for triangle perimeter is: a + b + c. In this scenario we have:

a = 3 feet 8 inches

b = 2 feet 10 inches

c = 4 feet

a + b + c =

= 3 ft + 8 in + 2 ft + 10 in + 4 ft =

= 9 ft + 18 in

We know that 1 foot is 12 inches, so we can simplify the result to this form:

10 ft + 6 in

or:

10.5 feet
