How many feet are there in 2 shots of anchor chain?

A 50
B 60
C 180
D 360

The correct answer is C) 180 feet. The reason is that one "shot" of anchor chain is equal to 90 feet. Therefore, 2 shots of anchor chain would be 2 x 90 feet = 180 feet. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) 50 feet is too short for 2 shots of anchor chain. B) 60 feet is too short for 2 shots of anchor chain. D) 360 feet is too long for 2 shots of anchor chain.
