You have to do 5 1/2 times 3/5

\(5\frac{1}{2} * \frac{3}{5} = \frac{11}{2} * \frac{3}{5} = \frac{11*3}{2*5} = \frac{33}{10} =3 \frac{3}{10} \ \textless \ -answer\)

Answer:

Junior is \(3 \frac{3}{10}\ feet\) talls .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

\(Junior's\ brother\ is\ 5 \frac{1}{2}\ feet\ tall.\)

i.e

\(Junior's\ brother\ is\ \frac{11}{2}\ feet\ tall.\)

\(Junior\ is\ \frac{3}{5}\ of\ his\ brother's\ height.\)

Thus

\(Junior\ heights = \frac{3}{5}\times Junior\ brothers\ heights\)

Putting all the values in the formula

\(Junior\ heights = \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{11}{2}\)

\(Junior\ heights = \frac{33}{10}\)

\(Junior\ heights = 3 \frac{3}{10}\ feet\)

Therefore Junior is \(3 \frac{3}{10}\ feet\) talls .
