Ravi can jump higher than anyone in the class. In fact, he can jump 1.5 times higher than the average jump of the three next highest jumpers. If the three next highest jumpers can jump 23 inches, 27 inches, and 28 inches, how high can Ravi jump? Let's be accurate as possible.
The total height the next three highest can jump is 78 inches because 23 + 27 + 28 = 78. The average height they can jump is 26 inches because 78 / 3 = 26. Ravi can jump 39 inches high because 26 x 1.5 = 39.
The answer: 39.
