Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the pythagorean theorem (Assuming the house's walls are perpindicular to the ground):
a^2+b^2=c^2

3^2+b^2=29^2
9+b^2=841
b^2=832
b=
b=
b=8
That is the height that the ladder will reach
To get the greatest possible quotient, you need the biggest possible
dividend and the smallest possible divisor.
96,432 divided by 225 = 428.5666... <== greatest possible
23,469 divided by 522 = 44.9597... <== smallest possible
