Question

A tower made of wooden blocks measures​114 feet high. Then a block is added that increases the height of the tower by 8 inches.

What is the final height of the block tower?

Answer 1

The final height of the tower is 114 feet 8 inches.

To solve this problem, we need to convert the additional 8 inches into feet. 8 inches is equal to 0.67 feet, so the new height of the tower is equal to 114 feet + 0.67 feet which is equal to 114 feet 8 inches.
