A pole that is 3.4 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.61 m long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 36.75 m long. How tall is the building? Round your answer to the nearest meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as a proportion with pole/building height on the top and shadow length on the bottom, using x for the unknown, which is the height of the building:

and cross multiply to solve:

1.61x = 124.95 so

x = 78 m

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
