    The conversion is: $\boxed{\text{127 cm}}$
    
    • 1.4: 0,24 feet to mm
  7. Convert feet to cm using 1 foot=30.48 cm1 \text{ foot} = 30.48 \text{ cm}.

    $$
    0.24 \text{ feet} \times \frac{30.48 \text{ cm}}{1 \text{ foot}} = 7.3152 \text{ cm}
    $$
    
  8. Convert cm to mm using 1 cm=10 mm1 \text{ cm} = 10 \text{ mm}.

    $$
    7.3152 \text{ cm} \times \frac{10 \text{ mm}}{1 \text{ cm}} = 73.152 \text{ mm}
    $$
    The conversion is: $\boxed{\text{73.152 mm}}$
    
    • 1.5: 3,7 m to yards
  9. Use the conversion factor 1 m=1.09361 yards1 \text{ m} = 1.09361 \text{ yards}.

    $$
    3.7 \text{ m} \times \frac{1.09361 \text{ yards}}{1 \text{ m}}
    $$
    
  10. Calculate the value.

    $$
    3.7 \times 1.09361 = 4.046357 \text{ yards}
    $$
    The conversion is: $\boxed{\text{4.046357 yards}}$

    2. In a high-jump competition, Lindy jumps 2,4 feet and Lester jumps 0,85 m. Who jumps the highest?

  18. Convert Lindy's jump from feet to meters using 1 foot=0.3048 m1 \text{ foot} = 0.3048 \text{ m}.

    2.4 feet×0.3048 m1 foot=0.73152 m2.4 \text{ feet} \times \frac{0.3048 \text{ m}}{1 \text{ foot}} = 0.73152 \text{ m}
  19. Compare Lindy's jump (0.73152 m) with Lester's jump (0.85 m).

    0.85 m>0.73152 m0.85 \text{ m} > 0.73152 \text{ m}

    Lester jumps higher.
    The person who jumps the highest is: Lester\boxed{\text{Lester}}

    3. Andy travels 3 250 metres. Determine the cost of his gas, if gas costs $2,50 per mile.

  20. Convert Andy's travel distance from meters to miles using 1 mile=1609.34 m1 \text{ mile} = 1609.34 \text{ m}.

    3250 m×1 mile1609.34 m≈2.0194 miles3250 \text{ m} \times \frac{1 \text{ mile}}{1609.34 \text{ m}} \approx 2.0194 \text{ miles}
  21. Calculate the total cost of gas.

    Cost=Distance in miles×Cost per mile\text{Cost} = \text{Distance in miles} \times \text{Cost per mile}

    Cost=2.0194 miles×$2.50/mile=$5.0485\text{Cost} = 2.0194 \text{ miles} \times \$2.50/\text{mile} = \$5.0485 The cost of his gas is: \boxed{\5.05}$
