Answer:

It was 10inches tall

Explanation:

If the width was 8 inches tall but then was reduced to 5 inches tall that means it was reduced by 3 inches, so we just do the same thing with the height. If it is 7inches tall after it was reduced then just add 3 inches back to it which means it was 10 inches tall...Ik its kinda confusing but its correct
