A 4-story house of cards requires 24 cards. How many cards are required to build a 98 story house of cards?

2 answers

Assuming that the house does not require a broader base to support the increased height,

x/98 = 24/4

Solve for x.
it does require a larger base.. assume that a 10 card house has a base of 4 and decreases upwords to 1
