Answer:
[tex]ratio=\frac{135\ feet}{9\ floors}[/tex]
[tex]unit\ rate=15\ \frac{feet}{floor}[/tex]
Meaning: Each floor of the buiding has a height of 15 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing figure is attached.
By definition, the ratios are used to compare two or more things or quantities.
In this case you must write the ratio of height of the building to the number of floors it has.
You can observe in the figure that the building has a height of 135 feet, and, since it has 9 floors, you can write the following ratio:
[tex]ratio=\frac{135\ feet}{9\ floors}[/tex]
Therefore, dividing the numerator by the denominator, you get that the unit rate is:
[tex]unit\ rate=15\ \frac{feet}{floor}[/tex]
This means that each floor of the buiding has a height of 15 feet.
