Answer:

h + 3

Explanation:

h + 3

3 = they are 3 inches TALLER which means you need to add 3

h = Howards height

So all you would need to do is add Howards age by 3, and you will get Raj's height. They said that " Raj is 3 inches taller than Howard", so that means when you get Howard (h) you would need to add it by 3 (3 inches taller), and you will be able to get Raj's height.

Hope this helped!
