Five years ago, Julie was 4 feet 7 inches tall. Her sister Carrie was 5 feet 1
tall. Since then, Carrie has grown 2 inches each year. Julie grew 13 inches
during the last 5 years. How much taller than Julie is Carrie now?

Respuesta :

The differnce in the height of Carrie and Julie given their rate of growth is 3 inches.

5 feet 11 inches

Julie's height = 4 feet 7 inches + 13 inches

I feet = 12 inches

71 inches - 68 inches

3 inches
