Convert to the same units, then the comparison and calculation can be made.

1 cm = 10 mm

→ 142 cm = 142 × 10 mm = 1420 mm

1420 > 1240 → the person 142 cm is taller.

1420 - 1240 = 180 mm → they are 180 mm = 180 ÷ 10 cm = 18 cm taller.

What does it mean to be towered by someone?

To be towered over by someone means that the person is much taller than you. This usually refers to physical height--someone is so much taller than you that they are like a tower next to you--but sometimes it is used figuratively to mean that someone is ranked much higher than you in another way. For example, I might say, "You can outplay him in every sport, but when it comes to math, he towers over you." That would mean that he is much better in math than you.

What does the idiom head and shoulders above the rest mean?

If someone is literally head and shoulders taller than another person in height, it would be obvious. There would be no dispute as to who is taller. Taken figuratively, it would mean that another person or thing is indisputably much better than the rest.I believe that the phrase refers back to a description of Saul who was described in 1 Samuel 9:1-2 as "a handsome young man. There was not a man among the people of Israel more handsome than he; from his shoulders upward he was taller than any of the people."
