Question 696113
Tara and jada are hiking up a hill. Each has a different stride.
 The run for Tara's stride is 32 inches, and the rise is 8 inches.
 The run for jade's stride is 36 inches.
 What is the rise of jade's stride?
:
Assuming the relationship of rise and run is same for each hiker
:
{{{8/32}}} = {{{r/36}}}
Cross multiply
32r = 8*36
32r = 288
r = 288/32
r = 9 inches is J's rise
