155.6 CM
I divided 168 by 100 to find 1% then i got 1.68cm then I times that by 5 to find 5% which was 8.4cm. Finally I subtracted 168 and 8.4 to get 155.6 CM
I hope that helped :)

5% of 168:
simplify 5%=1/20
1/20 of 168=8.4
so this year Yoshi is taller than last year 8.4cm
->168-8.4=159.6cm
Yoshi was 159.6cm last year
