Jacques and Aaron both started this year at 5.65 feet tall. What type of problem is this? How can you tell?

Jacques has grown 0.2 feet since then. Aaron has grown

twice that amount. How tall is Aaron?

A.) a part-whole problem because Jacque has grown a

part of the whole amount Aaron has grown

B.) a part-whole problem because 0.2 is part of 5.65

C.) a comparison problem because 0.2 is being

compared to 5.65

D.) a comparison problem because the amount Aaron

has grown is being compared to the amount

Jacques has grown
