To convert the height of the building from feet to meters, you can use the conversion factor that 1 meter is approximately 3.28 feet.
To find the height in meters, you can divide the height in feet by the conversion factor:
\[
\text{Height in meters} = \frac{\text{Height in feet}}{\text{Feet per meter}} = \frac{15 \, \text{feet}}{3.28 \, \text{feet/meter}}
\]
Now, let's calculate it:
\[
\text{Height in meters} = \frac{15}{3.28} \approx 4.576 \, \text{meters}
\]
Therefore, the height of the building is approximately **4.58 meters** when rounded to two decimal places.
