Question

Lady boil is 5 foot 6 inches Wylie Willie is 4 foot 5 inches skelly ton is 6 feet vamp pyre is 6 foot 8 inches jack lantern is 5 foot 6 inches underly ded is 6 foot 7 inches You need to do math and use their height and height of the furniture to see who could have reached the top shelf. To see who stole the candy!

Answer 1

Data:

LB=5ft 6in

WW= 4ft 5in

ST=6ft

VP=6ft 8in

JL= 5ft 6in

UD=6ft=7in

Furniture height:

Top shelf=92in

Table=25in

Stael=13in

Step lader=39in

Stack of books=43in

As 1ft is equal to 12in we can convert measurements of the persons in inches with the next formula:

`(\#ft\cdot12in)/(1tf)=\#in`

LB=66 in

WW= 48in

ST=72in

VP=80in

JL= 66in

UD=79in

To reach the top shelf (92in):

Everybody will need:

`92in-their\text{height}`

LB needs 92-66 = 26in

WW needs 92-48=44in

STneeds 92-72= 20in

VP needs 92-80= 12in

JLneeds 92-66= 26in

UD needs 92-79=13in

Then:

- LB can take the step lader or the stack of books to reach the top shelf

(LB+Step Lader= 66+39=105) or (LB+ stack of books =66+43=109in)

- WW can't reach the top shelf using just one piece of furniture

-ST can use the table, the step lader or the stack of books

(ST+table=72+13=85)or (ST+Step Lader= 72+39=111) or (ST+ stack of books =72+43=115in)

-VP can use the stael, or the table or the step lader or the stack of books to reach the top shelf.

-JL can use the step lader or the stack of books to reach the top shelf.

-UD can use the stael, or the table or the step lader or the stack of books to reach the top shelf. If UD uses the stael reach the top shelf in a exact measure (UD+stael=79+13=92)
