Question

Travis is 53 3 4 inches tall. Theresa is 1 1 2 inches taller than Travis and Jane is 1 1 5 inches taller than Theresa. How tall is Jane

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of Jane is $\frac{1129}{20}$ inches

Explanation:

Height of Travis is $53\frac{3}{4}$ inches

Height of Theresa is equal to Height of Travis + $1\frac{1}{2}$

$53\frac{3}{4}$ + $1\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{215}{4} + \frac{3}{2} \\\frac{215}{4} + \frac{6}{4}\\\frac{221}{4}$

Height of Jane is equal to Height of  Theresa + $1\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{221}{4} + \frac{6}{5} \\\frac{221*5 + 24}{20} \\\frac{1105+24}{20} \\\frac{1129}{20}$inches
