Question 786037
Hello, 
Let's make two equations: x will represent the height of each floor and h will be the total height. 
Building #1:
8x=h
Building #2:
16+6x=h
We can combine these equations as:
8x=16+6x
Solve for x and we get:
2x=16 or
x=8
So now we know the height of the floors is:
8 feet
Make sense?
