Sandra is 4 feet tall. Pablo is 10% taller than Sandra, and Michaela is 8% taller than Pablo.

Explain how to find Michaela's height with the given information

Height of Sandra that is already mentioned in the question is = 4 feet

Percentage by which Pablo is taller than Sandra = 10%

Height by which Pablo is greater than Sandra = (10/100) * 4

= (4/10)

= 0.4 feet

Then height of Pablo is = 4 + 0.4

= 4.4 feet

Now we can find the height of Michaela as she is 8% taller than Pablo.

Percent by which Michaela is taller than Pablo = 8%

Height by which Michaela is greater than Pablo = (8/100) * 4.4

= (2 * 4.4) / 25

= 0.35 feet

Then the height of Michaela = (4.4 + 0.35) feet

= 4.75 feet

So height of Michaela is 4.75 feet. This is the way this problem has to be solved.

If you would like to know how tall is Michaela, you can calculate this using the following steps:

Sandra ... s = 4 feet tall

Pablo ... p = 10% taller than Sandra: 110% * s = 110% * 4 = 110/100 * 4 = 4.4 feet tall

Michaela ... m = 8% taller than Pablo: 108% * p = 108% * 4.4 = 108/100 * 4.4 = 4.752 feet tall

Result: Michaela is 4.752 feet tall.
