Answer:

your answer is D.

Explanation:

if you times each number (9, 10, 17, 13) by 14.3 you would find your number like so:

A. 14.3 · 9 = 128.7

B. 14.3 · 10 = 143

C. 14.3 · 17 = 243

D. 14.3 · 13 = 185.9

which gives you your answer and shows explanation of how you got your answer.

To find out how many floors the building has, we take the height of the building and divide by the size of each floor
