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
