Answer:

About 6 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

One book has a thickness of 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches.

Another book has a thickness of 3.56 inches

Converting 2 $\frac{3}{7}$ inches to decimals will give; 2.4285714286 inches

If the books are stacked together, they become 2.4285714286 inches + 3.56 inches = 5.988571429 inches tall or about 6 inches tall (answer rounded up to nearest whole number).
