Answer 1

Answer: The length of his neck is longer than the length of his forearms by 44.86 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of his neck = 14.72 inches

Length of his forearm = 25.81 cm

Since there is given that

1 inch = 2.54 cm

So, 14.72 inches = 14.72×2.54=37.39 cm

So, Length of his neck becomes 37.39 cm

So, the length of his neck is longer than the length of his forearms.

Difference between them is given by

37.39-25.81=11.58 cm

so, Percentage of change would be

$\dfrac{11.58}{25.81}\times 100\\\\=44.86\%$

Hence, the length of his neck is longer than the length of his forearms by 44.86 %.

Answer 2

The circumference of Victor's neck is 44.86% longer than his forearm.
