Step-by-step explanation:

80% = 0.8

170 inches × 80% = 170 × 0.8 = 136

The truck is 80% longer than the boat. 80% of the boat is 136.

So, the boat is 170 inches + 136 inches = 306 inches.

C) 136 inches.

To find this just do the equation:

170 x 0.8 = ?

This equation tells use how much 80% of 170 is. Also, before doing an equation like this, change the percentage into a decimal like 80% to 0.8.

So,

170 x 0.8 = 136

170 + 136 = 306

So the boat is 306 inches.
