1 answer:
Answer: 432ft. shadow
Step-by-step explanation:
Because Nora is 5’3”, you need to convert every numerical value into inches by multiplying them by 12 (12in = 1 ft.)
5’ x 12 = 60” + 3” = 63”
9’ x 12 = 108”
252’ x 12 = 3,024”
Then create equivalent fractions.
63/108 = 3,024/x
108 x 3024 = 326,592/63 = 5,184in.
Then convert it back into feet.
5,184/12 = 432ft.
