One inch is 2.54 cm. Therefore, (2.54 cm / 1 in) is a conversion factor, meaning that it is an expression equal to 1 that you can use for unit conversions. Similarly, a foot is 12 inches, so (12 in / 1 ft) is also a conversion factor.
5ft 6in is the same as 5 ft + 6 in. Start by converting 5 ft into inches: (5 ft)(12 in / 1ft) = 60 in. Add back in the additional 6 in to get 66 in. Multiply 66 in by (2.54 cm / 1 in) to get a result in cm. Use the same approach for 5'8".

Answer 1: A wheel has 360 degrees (becos its a circle) so if two spokes have an angle of 15 degrees between them then there are 360/15= 24 spokes. Answer2: Picture L= 8ft (8*12 inches= 96 inches), W= 6 ft (6*12 inches= 72 inches) so area is L* W(from the measurements u can see its a rectangle so will be the frame) = 6912 sq inches. Now the frame needs to have a length which is not given and its width needs to be more than the picture since its a frame. This does not seem right. Please check your second question.

Google "inches to cm" to get the conversion rate. This works for almost all conversions.
1 inch = 2.54 cm.
So 5'8" = 5 feet (60 inches) + 8 inches = 68" = 173cm (apx)

5'-6" = 167.64 cm
5'-8"= 172.72 cm
To do this on your own just go to google and use the convert command. Just go to the search bar and type in convert then whatever you want to convert, then type to and type the next unit. for example if you type this
convert 5 foot 8 inches to cm
you get this
5 foot 8 inches = 172.72 centimeters
it works with all kinds of units try it
you can also type define and then put a word and it will give a definition
