Lisa is 8 centimeters taller than her friend lan. lan is 12 centimeters taller than Jim. Every month, their heights increase by 2 centimeters. In 6 months, the sum of lan's and Jim's heights will be 160 centimeters
more than Lisa's height. How tall is lan now? Let h be lan's height today in centimeters.
(h +12)+(
) + 12 =(
) + 12 + 160
lan is
centimeters tall now.
