Answer: 120m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the building be represented by x.

Since the height of a tower is 15m more than tiwce the height of a building, the height of the tower will be:

= (2 × x) + 15

= 2x + 15

Since the tower is 255m tall, therefore,

2x + 15 = 255

2x = 255 - 15

2x = 240

x = 240/2

x = 120

The height of the building is 120m
