🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between meters, feet, and fathoms • Standard conversion: 1 meter ≈ 3.28 feet • Standard conversion: 1 fathom = 6 feet

💭 Think About

• First convert 23 meters into feet using the meters-to-feet conversion, then compare your result to the feet options given. • After getting feet, convert that value into fathoms and compare to the fathom options. • Check which answer choice is closest to your properly converted value, and watch for any that may be off by a simple rounding or arithmetic error.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you use 1 meter ≈ 3.28 feet and not 3 feet or 3.3 feet exactly unless you handle rounding carefully. • Remember that 1 fathom = 6 feet, so divide your feet value by 6 to get fathoms. • Check both feet and fathom answers; only one pair should match your converted values reasonably closely.
