Jebb is 1 1/2 times as tall as the shortest girl in the sixth grade, who is 4 1/4 feet tall.
To find out how tall Jebb is, we need to multiply 4 1/4 feet by 1 1/2.
Step 1: Multiply the whole numbers: 4 x 1 = 4
Step 2: Multiply the fractions: 1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8
Step 3: Add the whole number and the fraction: 4 + 1/8 = 4 1/8
Therefore, Jebb is 4 1/8 feet tall.
