Answer: 56 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 60+58+64+72=254 (Add the average of his family without including him)
a. 62x5=310 (The average times 5, cause there are 5 of them will get you the total number of inches)
b. 310-254=56 (Subtract the total number of the 5 of them with the 4 of them to find Bill's height)
you can check your answer by adding all their heights.
