Ok sure! Let's start with the marbles first. We have one red one blue and one green. There is a red and a blue cube. All we do is list the possible combinations of one marble and one cube. The answer would be : 1 blue marble, 1 blue cube. 1 red marble, 1 blue cube. 1 green marble, 1 blue cube. Then again but with the red cube. So in all, there are 6 possible combinations. Hope this helps. ☺️
Simply subtract the height of Pancho’s sandcastle (3/5 of a foot) minus the height of his sister’s sandcastle (2/5 of a foot) to find a difference of 1/5 of a foot, meaning Pancho’s sandcastle was 1/5 of a foot taller than his sister’s sandcastle.
