Answer:
16 : 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Word problems related to ratio:
Total height of three friends = 470 cm
Ratio of the height of Sasha and Tess = 3 : 4
Height of Sasha = 3x
Height of Tess = 4x
Wendy is 30 cm taller than Tess. We can find Wendy's height by adding 30 to '4x'.
Wendy's height = 30cm + height of Tess
             = 30 + 4x
Total height = 470
3x + 4x + (30 +4x) = 470
3x + 4x + 4x + 30 = 470
Combine like terms,
       11x  + 30 = 470
Subtract 30 from both sides,
           11x = 470 - 30
           11x = 440
Divide both sides by 11,
             x = 440 ÷ 11
             x = 40
Height of Tess = 4x
            = 4 *40
            = 160 cm
Height of Wendy = 30 + height of Tess
               = 30 + 160
               = 190 cm

                   = 16 : 19
