Step 1
Change the heights to feet and inches.

3 feet 11 inches	3 feet 11 inches
46 inches	3 feet 10 inches
4 feet 8 inches	4 feet 8 inches
48 inches	4 feet
4 feet 2 inches	4 feet 2 inches
52 inches	4 feet 4 inches

Step 2
Make a chart with the heights in order from least to greatest.

Height	Student
3 feet 10 inches
3 feet 11 inches
4 feet
4 feet 2 inches
4 feet 4 inches
4 feet 8 inches

Step 3
Use the hints to fill in the names on the chart.

• Since Kendra is second in line, she must be 3 feet 11 inches. Put her name in the chart.
• Since Sandy is one inch shorter than Kendra, she must be 3 feet 10 inches. Put her name in the chart.
• Try out different orders for the other four students.
• Guess and check to see which order matches the clues.
