10% taller than 4 feet

= 4 + 1/10 * 4

= 4 + 0.4

= 4.4 feet

8% taller than 4.4 feet

= 4.4 + 8/100 * 4.4

= 4.4 + 4.4 * 0.08

= 4.75 feet

Sandra is 4 feet , Carlos is 4.40 feet and Nicola is 4.75 feet tall

In feet and inches it is 4 feet, 4 feet 5 inches and 4 feet 9 inches

(to the nearest inch).
