In order to solve this,, we must convert Alan's 2 meter height into feet. We know that 1 meter is about 3.2808399 feet,, so we must multiply this number by 2 to find how tall Alan is.
3.2808399 x 2 = 6.56168
Now we need to round our answer to the nearest tenth to get our final answer. In order to do this,, we must look at the first number behind the decimal. If it is smaller than 5 then we round down,, but if it is 5 or larger then we round up. Knowing this,, we need to round our answer up to 6.6,, meaning that Alan is taller than Paul.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
