Answer:

4. 23 in

Explanation:

The tower is 1 1/4 feet high, then 8 inches are added. Well, we can't just add those two numbers. We have to change the units! Change everything to inches.

1 1/4 feet is equal to 12 inches + 3 inches = 15 inches, because a foot = 12 inches.

Add 8 inches to 15, and you get 23 inches.

The answer is 4. 23 in.
