h = the height of the flagpole
s = the height of the school
h = ( 3 / 4 ) s
s - h = 4.5 m
s - ( 3 / 4 ) s = 4.5
( 1 / 4 ) s = 4.5 Multiply both sides by 4
s = 18
The height of the school = 18 m
s = the height of the school
h = ( 3 / 4 ) s
s - h = 4.5 m
s - ( 3 / 4 ) s = 4.5
( 1 / 4 ) s = 4.5 Multiply both sides by 4
s = 18
The height of the school = 18 m
