Question 98196
<pre><font face = "arial black">
An object will fall {{{m}}} feet in {{{n}}} seconds. How long will it
take for a quarter to hit the ground if it is dropped from 
the top of a tower that is {{{1454}}} feet tall?

The quarter will fall {{{m}}} ft in {{{n}}} seconds. So, divide both
quantities by {{{m}}}:

The quarter will fall {{{m/m}}} ft in {{{n/m}}} seconds.

Reduce {{{m/m}}} to {{{1}}}

The quarter will fall {{{1}}} ft in {{{n/m}}} seconds.

Multiply both quantities by {{{1454}}}:

The quarter will fall {{{1454}}} ft in {{{(1454n)/m}}} seconds.
