This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4
To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.
I'll use 12
The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12
10/12-3/12 = 7/12
So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.
Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda
4 is the greatest common factor of 32 and 44

Answer:
10 years
40 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let present ag e of son=x
5 years ago age of son=x-5
5 years ago age of man=7(x-5)=7x-35
present age of man=7x-35+5=7x-30
after 5 years
age of son=x+5
age of man=7x-30+5=7x-25
also 7x-25=3(x+5)
7x-25=3x+15
7x-3x=15+25
4x=40
x=10
age of son=10 years
age of man=7*10-30=70-30=40 years
