On a sunny day, Michelle and Nancy noticed that their shadows were different lengths. Nancy measured Michelle's shadow and found that it was 24.0 inches long. Michelle then measured Nancy's shadow and found that it was 13.5 inches long.
Answer: Whats the catch? Its just telling how long their shadows are. Are you missing a part of the problem? If yes, 24.0 (michelle) is 10.5 inches longer than nancy’s shadow (13.5) Or if you have to find the total, 24.0 + 13.5 = 37.5 inches.
