Crane · Answer 1

520 feet high. 330 feet divided by 5 inches is 65. So if you took 8 inches times 65 you would have a 520 foot high building.

Bozley · Answer 2

528 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to work out what 1 inch is worth.

330 / 5 = 66

1 inch is 66 feet.

So, to get what 8 inches is we need to multiply 8 by 66:

8 * 66 = 528

Therefore, the answer is 528 feet
