Question

B) 75 inches
C) 80 inches
D) 85 inches

Answer 1

Jeremy is 25% taller than Ava, making his height 75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeremy is 25% taller than Ava, who is 60 inches tall. To find Jeremy's height, we need to calculate 25% of Ava's height and add it to Ava's height.

25% of 60 inches is 0.25 x 60 = 15 inches.

So, Jeremy's height is 60 inches + 15 inches = 75 inches.
