Jerry is standing next to a big tree. The tree casts a shadow that is
20 feet long. Jerry, who is 6 ft tall, casts a shadow that is 2 feet
long.
How tall is the tree?
Step-by-step explanation: Jerry’s shadow is a third of Jerry, that means the Tree’s shadow is only a third of the tree. To find the tree’s height you have to multiply the shadow by 3, 20 multiplied by 3 is 60.
