If Pablo is 9% taller than he is 109% as tall as Sandra or

1.09 times as tall:

4(1.09) = 4.36 feet tall

(0.36 ft)(12 inches/ft) = 4.32 inches

Pablo is 4 ft 4.3 inches tall

Michaela is 10% taller than Pablo or 110% as tall so

1.1(4.36) = 4.796 ft tall

(0.796 ft)(12 in/ft) = 9.552 inches

Michaela is 4 ft 9.6 inches tall
