1. "A fish has a head 9" long. The tail is equal to the size of the head plus one-half the size of the body. The body is the size of the head plus the tail." How long is the fish? 

  • A. 27"
  • B. 27"
  • C. 27"
  • D. 27"

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

72" The head is 9". the Tail is 18" + 9" = 27". The body is 9" + 18" + 9" = 36". 91, + 27" + 36" = 72" -This maybe solved algebraically as well.
