Question

James is 1 3/7 times as tall as his brother. his brother is 3 1/2 feet tall. Is James's height more or less than 3 1/2 feet?

Answer 1

James is 5 feet tall

Answer 2

James height is more than 3 1/2 because he is 5 feet tall


I got this by multiplying 1 3/7×3 1/2 but making both into improper fractions (10/7×4/2) I got 5(feet) which is james height. So in conclusion, james height is more than 3 1/2 feet because his height is 5 feet
