If you break it down it will be easier here is how.
This is the question:
If you get 100 pounds for being 5 feet tall and 5 pounds for every 5 inches over 5 feet tall and you are 135 pounds how tall are you?
You need to do:
You are 35 pounds over 5 feet. So 35 divided by 5 is 7. You are 5 feet 7 inches tall.
