Ra'Mana measured her height as 59 inches. That is 27 inches more than half her older brother sister's height. How tall is her older sister?
Let's call Ra'Mana's older sister's height "x."
Half her older sister's height is 1/2*x = x/2.
So, 59 = x/2 + 27.
Thus, x/2 = 59 - 27 = 32.
Hence, the older sister's height is x = 2*32 = <<2*32=64>>64 inches. Answer: \boxed{64}.
Let's break down the information given step-by-step:
1. Ra'Mana's height is 59 inches.
2. Her height is 27 inches more than half her older sister's height.
To find her older sister's height, we can use the following equation:
Ra'Mana's Height = (1/2) * Older Sister's Height + 27
Now, let's substitute the given values into the equation:
59 = (1/2) * Older Sister's Height + 27
To isolate Older Sister's Height, we can subtract 27 from both sides of the equation:
59 - 27 = (1/2) * Older Sister's Height
32 = (1/2) * Older Sister's Height
Finally, to find the Older Sister's Height, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
2 * 32 = 1 * Older Sister's Height
64 = Older Sister's Height
Therefore, Ra'Mana's older sister is 64 inches tall.
To find the height of Ra'Mana's older sister, we need to first calculate half the height of her older brother sister (let's call this x). We can then add 27 inches to this value to find Ra'Mana's height.
Let's set up an equation to represent this:
59 inches = x/2 + 27 inches
To isolate x, we need to subtract 27 inches from both sides of the equation:
59 inches - 27 inches = x/2
Simplifying the left side of the equation:
32 inches = x/2
To find the value of x, we need to multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
2 * 32 inches = x
64 inches = x
Therefore, the older sister's height is 64 inches.
