We have been given the expression

We can rewrite the expression as 
In order to simplify the given expression, we can check if we have any common terms in the numerator and denominator.
We can write the term 72 which is in the numerator as 
Thus, the expression becomes

We can see that 4 is common in both numerator and denominator. Hence, we can cancel 4. Thus, we are left with

Therefore, we can rewrite the given expression as 54.

Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
First make it that both denominators are the same.

Then add both numerators

Your final answer should be
