Answer: In feet, the distance between the tip of the fishing rod and the hook =0.8333333333... feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 foot = 12 inches

Therefore, 1 inch = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] foot

Given: Trent lets his hook drop another 10 inches.

Thus, the distance between the tip of the fishing rod and the hook = 10 inches.

In feet, the distance between the tip of the fishing rod and the hook =[tex]\frac{1}{12}\times10[/tex] feet =0.83333333333... feet

Hence, In feet, the distance between the tip of the fishing rod and the hook =0.83333333333... feet
