Step-by-step explanation:

Let Height of two friends be 7x:8x

According to the question:

7x:8x=7x:176cm

=>8x=176

=>x=176/8

=>22cm

Therefore,

Height of another friend = 22cm x 7

                                        = 154cm

Answer 2

Answer:

154 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of one friend be 7x and other be 8x.

ATQ height of taller friend is 176 cms.

=> 8x=176

∴ x= 176/8

x= 22

so height of smaller friend= 7x

                                           = 7*22

                                           =  154
