Answer 2

Answer:

43.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

if tyler has grown by 20℅ and cody is half as much then cody is 10℅.

if tyler is 4 feet then,

4 feet = 100℅

x. = 20℅

x = 20℅ × 4 feet /100℅

x = 0.8 feet

if cody has grown half as much, 0.8/2 = 0.4feet

if they were equal once to find Cody's height we can, 4feet-0.4feet = 3.6 feet = 43.2 inches
