Answer:

The nearby building is [tex]135 \dfrac{5}{9}[/tex] feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statue of liberty is 305 feet tall.

A nearby building is [tex]\dfrac{4}{9}[/tex] as tall as the statue of liberty.

To find the height of the building, you need to find [tex]\dfrac{4}{9}[/tex] of 305:

[tex]\dfrac{4}{9}\cdot 305=\dfrac{1,220}{9}= 135 \dfrac{5}{9}\ feet[/tex]

Thus, the nearby building is [tex]135 \dfrac{5}{9}[/tex] feet tall.
