To find the height of the son, we need to multiply the height of the basketball player by 1/4.
6 2/3 * 1/4 = (6 + 2/3) * 1/4 = (18/3 + 2/3) * 1/4 = (20/3) * 1/4 = 5/3 * 1/4 = 5/12
Therefore, the height of the son is 5/12 feet.
The answer is 2 2/12 ft.

Apologies for the previous incorrect calculation.

To find the height of the son, we multiply the height of the basketball player (6 2/3) by 1/4:

(20/3) * 1/4 = (20/3) / (4/1) = (20/3) * (1/4) = 20/12 = 5/3 = 1 2/3

Therefore, the height of the son is 1 2/3 feet.
