The correct answer is:
$6\text{ ft}$
Explanation
We convert inches to feet using the fact that 1 foot equals 12 inches. Divide the total inches by 12 to get feet.
Steps:
- First step: $$1\text{ ft} = 12\text{ in}$$
- Second step: $$\frac{72\text{ in}}{12\text{ in/ft}} = 6\text{ ft}$$
- Final step: Therefore, $72$ inches equals $6$ feet.
