One person is 6 feet 11 inches tall, and another is 5 feet 2 inches tall. What is the sum of their heights?

1 answer

The first person is 83 inches tall (6 feet * 12 inches + 11 inches = 72 inches + 11 inches = 83 inches).

The second person is 62 inches tall (5 feet * 12 inches + 2 inches = 60 inches + 2 inches = 62 inches).

Therefore, the sum of their heights is 83 inches + 62 inches = 145 inches.

Converting this back to feet and inches, the sum is 12 feet 1 inch.
