Solution Steps

Step 1: Convert feet to inches

Since 1 foot equals 12 inches, multiply the number of feet by 12: \[ 5 \, \text{feet} \times 12 \, \frac{\text{inches}}{\text{foot}} = 60 \, \text{inches} \]

Step 2: Add the remaining inches

Add the additional 2 inches to the result from Step 1: \[ 60 \, \text{inches} + 2 \, \text{inches} = 62 \, \text{inches} \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{62}\)
