13/20 because it is 6.5 vs 5/8 being 6.25

13/20 would be the same as 65%. Divide 13 by 20 to get 65%. Then 5/8 would be the same as 62.5%. Divide 5 by 8. The reason I do it this way is because you could spend all day multiplying the fractions to higher numbers and see which is bigger, but converting to other forms is the best to tell. Percentages don't lie. So that means that 13/20 is bigger.

Myra is 51 inches tall.

We'll use Susan as our base for this. She is 50 inches tall, and ignoring Myra or now, we move on to Elanie, who is said to be 2 inches shorter than Susan - therefore, Elanie is 48 inches tall. Now that we know this, we can return to Myra's information which says she is 3 inches taller than Elanie, which would mean she is in fact 51 inches tall.
