    Daniel is 6cm taller than Kamala. If their total height is 368cm, how tall is Kamala?

    Let Daniel's height be d. Let Kamala's height be k. We're given two equations:
    1. d = k + 6
    2. d + k = 368
    Substitute equation (1) into equation (2) for d:
    k + 6 + k = 368

    To solve for k, we type this equation into our search engine and we get:
    k = 181
