Two buildings have the same total height. One building

has 6 floors each with height, h. The other building has

a ground floor of 36 ft. and 3 other floors each with

height h. Write and solve an equation to find the height

hof each floors.

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Two buildings have the same total number of heights

The first building has 6 floors each with height h

The second building has a ground floor of 36 feet and 3 other floors each

Since both buildings have the same height then

Height of first building= height of second building

The first step is to calculate the height of the first building

Height of first building = 6h

The height of the second building is

36 + 3h

Therefore the height of each floors can be calculated as follows

6h= 36 + 3h

Collect the like terms

6h-3h = 36

3h= 36

h= 36/3

h= 12

Hence the height of each floors is 12 feet
