Marcus is 1.79 metres tall.
Stephen is taller than Marcus by half the difference between Kobe's height and
Marcus's height.
How tall, in metres, is Stephen?
Optional working

Answer 1

Kobe height (2.07) - Marcus height (1.79) equals 0.28 meters

0.28 meters / 2 = 0.14 meters

Stephen is 0.14 meters taller than Marcus, so

1.79 + 0.14 = 1.93 meters

Answer = Stephen’s height is 1.93 meters.
