Explanation:

you can decide to convert all heights to meter

John Is 1.62 meters tall

Sara is 5 feet and 6 inches tall 1 foot= 0.3048 meter

therefore 5 feet= 5×0.3048=1.524 meters

and 1 inch= 0.0254 meters

6 inches= 6×0.0254=0.1524 meter

Sara's total height is 1.524+0.1524=1.6764 meters

so, Sara is taller
