Answer: The height of building is 311 feet and the height of statue is 15.6 feet.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the building be 'b' and the height of the statue be 'g'.

Then according to the question, we get the following equation

b+g=326.6.......(1)\\b-g=295.4............(2)

Now, add both the equations, we get

2b=622\\\Rightarrow\ b=311

Substitute the value of b in equation (2), we get

311-g=295.4\\\Rightarrow\ g=311-295.4\\\Rightarrow\ g=15.6

Hence, the height of building = 311 feet and the height of statue =15.6 feet.
