Last year Jill was 5.1 feet tall. She grew 8% taller in 1 year. How tall is she now?

Let's convert 5.1 ft to inches......we have

5.1 x 12 = 61.2 inches

So

61.2 (1.08) = 66.096 inches

And coverting this to back to ft, we have

66.096/12 = 5.508 ft

.051x8 which is .408 +5.1 = 5.508

Say thank you
