Question

Each floor in the old headquarters of Oldham Bank and Trust is 14 feet in

height except the ground floor, which is 24 feet high. There are 5 floors. How
tall is the building?

Answer 1

To find the total height of the building, we need to calculate the sum of the heights of all the floors.

Height of the ground floor = 24 feet

Height of each floor (except ground floor) = 17 feet

Number of floors (excluding ground floor) = 7 - 1 = 6

Total height of the building = Height of the ground floor + (Height of each floor * Number of floors)

Total height of the building = 24 + (17 * 6)

Total height of the building = 24 + 102

Total height of the building = 126 feet

Therefore, the building is 126 feet tall.

Answer 2

80ft! I might be wrong though

How I did it:
Since there are 5 floors (ground floor included) then that means only 1 floor is 24ft so I multiplied 14 by 4 to get 56 then I added 24 to get 80!
