Question

Alex has a Dalmatian dog that is 2/5 as tall as he is. Alex is 6 feet

5 inches tall. How tall is Alex's dog?

Answer 1

If Alex is 6 feet 5 inches tall, that means he is 6 * 12 + 5 = 77 inches tall.

And the dog is 2/5 as tall as Alex, which is 77 * 2/5 = 31.4 inches tall.

So, Alex's dog is 31.4 inches tall.
