This problem tackles the place values of numbers. From the rightmost end of the number to the leftmost side, these place values are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, millions, ten millions, one hundred millions, and so on and so forth. My idea for the solution of this problem is to add up all like multiples. In this problem, there are 5 multiples expressed in ones, thousands, hundred thousands, tens and hundreds. Hence, you will add up 5 like terms. The solution is as follows
30(1) + 82(1,000) + 4(100,000) + 60(10) + 100(100)
The total answer is 492,630. Therefore, the number's identity is 492,630.

Step-by-step answer:
The first step in solving a problem of geometry and trigonometry is to draw a diagram, with all the given information in it. The attached image does just that.
Here, we have (horizontal) distance of building to the tower is 400'.
We see two right triangles, each with a leg of 400' (horizontal).
The vertical distances are denoted h1 and h2 for the angles of elevation 24 and 20 degrees respectively.
Using the definition of tangent, we have
h1= 400tan24=178.1
h2=400tan20=145.6
The height of the tower is therefore h1+h2=178.1+145.6=323.7 feet
