Question

Sharon is 54 inches tall. A tree in her backyard 5 times as tall as she is. The floor of her tree houses at a height that is twice as tall as she is. What is the difference, and inches, between the top of the tree in the floor of the treehouse

Answer 1

270-108=162 inches ..............

Answer 2

So, since Sharon is 54 inches tall, and the tree is 5 times taller than she is, 54*5=270
The floor of her tree house, however is 2 times taller than she is.
54*2=108

The result would be:
270-108=162
The difference is 162 inches
