Answer
Area of parallelogram =basex height
=24.1 x 9.9 square meter ( base is 24.1 and corresponding height 9.9m) (1)
area of parallelogram on other base = 32.3 x corresponding height (2)
both (1) and (2) are equal as area of one parallelogram
24.1 x9.9 =32.3 x height of corresponding base

height =24.1 x 9.9/32.3
Height =7.3866 m
=7.4 m (round off) ANSWER

height =24.1 x 9.9/32.3
Height =7.3866 m
So your answer would be 7.4 m you have to round up.
