Putting all the heights in order we get:
149.25
149.5
150.75
152.0
Bradley is the tallest, so he is 152.0
Josh is the shortest, so he is 149.25
Calvin is taller than josh, but shorter than mark,
So Calvin is 149.5, making Mark 150.75cm

Answer:

150.75 cm

Explanation:

Given heights,

152.0 cm, 150.75 cm, 149.5 cm, and 149.25,

∵ Calvin is taller than Josh, but shorter than Mark,

The increasing order of heights,

Josh < Calvin < Mark,

Also, Bradley is the tallest,

That is, the height of Bradley is the greater than Josh, Calvin and Mark,

So, the final increasing order of heights,

Josh < Calvin < Mark < Bradley

∵ 149.25 < 149.5 < 150.75 < 152.0

Hence, the height of Mark is 150.75.
