To find the distance between the points (6.6,7.9) and (6.6,4.7), we can use the distance formula:

distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Plugging in the coordinates of the two points, we get:

distance = √((6.6 - 6.6)^2 + (4.7 - 7.9)^2)

Simplifying this expression gives us:

distance = √((0)^2 + (-3.2)^2)

Which simplifies to:

distance = √(10.24)

Finally, taking the square root of both sides gives us:

distance = 3.2

So, the distance between the points (6.6,7.9) and (6.6,4.7) is approximately 3.2.
