Question

A girl is exactly one yard tall and her sister is 1/3 of a yard taller. how many total inches tall are they added together.

Answer 1

Total height = 1yd + 1yd+1/3yd = 2 1/3 yd = 7/3 yd

7/3 yd = 7/3 * 36 inch = 84 inch

Answer 2

84 inches

Explanation:

A girl is exactly one yard tall.

one yard = 36 inches

Her sister is 1/3 of a yard taller = 36 +
`((1)/(3)* 36)`

= 36 + 12

= 48 inches

Total inches when they added together = 48 + 36 = 84 inches
