Plant B is [tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Height of plant A = [tex]\frac{16}{3}\ feet[/tex]
This is 4/5 of height of plant B.
Let,
x be the height of plant B.
[tex]\frac{4}{5}x=\frac{16}{3}[/tex]
Multiplying both sides by [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{4}*\frac{4}{5}x=\frac{16}{3}*\frac{5}{4}\\\\x=\frac{80}{12}\\\\x=\frac{20}{3}[/tex]
Plant B is [tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] feet tall.
