Hi there! The answer is 11 ft. To solve this, i set up a fraction of floors/feet. Then, i entered the given information in to make it 103/1133. Since we are trying to solve for x number of feet per floor, use cross multiplication and solve for x. Then, divide by 103 on both sides to get 11 ft. I hope this helps you!! :))

Just divide the total height of the building by the number of floors.
1,133 / 103 = 11
Each floor is 11 feet tall, hope this helps!
