Answer:

20% of 50 oz is 10 oz, but 20% of 60 oz is 12 oz.

This is because 60 is a larger number than 50, so percentage changes to it will be larger.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

1249. 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Pole length , Pl = 2 fts

Pole shadow, Ps = 20 in = (0.0833 * 20) = 1.666 ft

Tower length, Tl = 125 ft

Tower shadow, Ts = x

Pl / Ps = Tl/ Ts

2/ 1.666 = 125 / x

Cross multiply

2x = 125 * 1.666

2x = 208.25

x = 104.125 ft

x = 104.125 * 12 = 1249. 5 inches
