Sara and Joe have a combined height of 120 inches. Joe is 6 inches more than double Sara's height. How tall is Joe?
Stream of thoughts:
82
Let x be Sara's height in inches.

Joe is 6 + 2x inches tall.

120 = x + (6 + 2x).

120 = 3x + 6.

114 = 3x.

x = 38 inches.

Joe is 6 + 2(38) = 82 inches.

.

Thus, the answer is 82
