Size Speculations: 42-47 feet (12.8-14.3 meters). (Head et al., 2009 and 2013)
Skull:
40 cm (Head et al., 2013).
The Percentage Increase/Decrease Method:
1. Take new number and subtract it from original number.
2. Take that number and divide it by the original number and multiply by 100.
3. That number will by your percentage increase or decrease if it's negative.
Ex.: "Stan's" Femur is 130 and has a body length of 12.2 meters. "Wyrex" has a femur length of 132.7 cm.
132.7 - 130 = 2.7.
2.7 divided by (represented by "/") and multiplied by (represented by "*") equals 2.1.
(2.7/130*100 = 2.1)
2.1 is your percentage increase, or 2.1% increase.
12.2 m + 2.1% = 12.5 meters for "Wyrex."

Note: 5 3/4 inches is 14.6 cm, based on Google.
14.6 - 9.6 = 5.
5/9.6*100 = 52.1% increase.
3.3 cm + 52.1% = 16 feet (5.0 meters).
Length: 16 feet (5.0 meters).
