1. **State the problem:** Convert the height of a container from feet and inches to meters. 2. **Given:** Height = 6 feet 7 inches. 3. **Formula:** To convert feet and inches to meters, use the conversion factors: - 1 foot = 0.3048 meters - 1 inch = 0.0254 meters 4. **Convert feet to meters:** $$6 \text{ feet} = 6 \times 0.3048 = 1.8288 \text{ meters}$$ 5. **Convert inches to meters:** $$7 \text{ inches} = 7 \times 0.0254 = 0.1778 \text{ meters}$$ 6. **Add the two results to get total height in meters:** $$1.8288 + 0.1778 = 2.0066 \text{ meters}$$ 7. **Round to the nearest tenth:** $$2.0066 \approx 2.0 \text{ meters}$$ **Final answer:** The height of the container is closest to **2.0 meters**. **Answer choice:** B. 2.0
