George's tree measures 5 feet in height, which is equivalent to 60 inches (since 1 foot = 12 inches). The interior dimensions of his car are 60 inches in length, 45 inches in width, and 40 inches in height.
To determine if the tree will fit inside George's car, we need to compare the height of the tree (60 inches) to the height of the car (40 inches). Since the tree's height exceeds the car's height, the tree will not fit inside George's car.
In this case, George would need a vehicle with a larger height clearance to transport the tree. It's important to consider the dimensions of both the object being transported and the space available in the vehicle to ensure a successful fit!
