To find the answer to this question and work out what the height would be of a woman who has shoulders that are 18.5 inches wide in total, you would need to do the following equation: 64 (the woman's height) divided by 16 (the shoulder width) results in 4. Therefore, if you multiply 16 by 4 you will get the results 64, and we therefore know that the equation will be 4w=h. From this, we can therefore know that a woman who has a shoulder width of 18.5 will be 74 inches tall, judging by the equation 4*18.5=74
