Question

Your dad is 73.5 inches tall. You are 2.5 inches shorter than your dad. Your mom is 3.25 inches shorter than you. How tall is your mom?

Answer 1

Your mom is 67.75 inches tall

Answer 2

Answer: My mom's height is 67.75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that my dad is 73.5 inches, I am 2.5 inches shorter than my dad. My mom is 3.25 inches shorter than me.

We are to find the height of the mom.

Since I am 2.5 inches shorter than my dad, so my height will be

`h_m=73.5-2.5=71~\textup{inches}.`

Now, my mom is 3.25 inches shorter than me, so my mom's height is

`h_(mom)=71-3.25=67.75~\textup{inches}.`

Thus, my mom is 67.75 inches tall.
