To find out how tall the son is, we need to multiply the height of the basketball player by 1/4.
6 2/3 feet can be written as an improper fraction: 6 + 2/3 = (6*3 + 2)/3 = 20/3 feet.
Now, to find 1/4 of 20/3 feet, we multiply 20/3 by 1/4:
(20/3) * (1/4) = (20*1)/(3*4) = 20/12 = 5/3 feet.
Therefore, the son is 5/3 feet tall.
A basketball player is 6 2/3
feet tall. His infant son is 1/4
as tall. How tall is his son?
