The height of the silo is 30 feet The 30-feet long boat The spin-globe measures 30 feet in diameter This scale model of the Sears Tower is thirty feet tall I have a deeded access easement 30 feet wide that has been encroached upon by the age of several pecan trees and a water This statue is 20-30 feet high and stands in the corner of city park.
============================== In this line of thinking, a monunemt is not something dangling in the space, this 'meters' there must come with a direction, let´s say, up or down, lenght, width etc. Not just 'meters', period.
"The monument is thirty-two point five meters long/tall/wide/high."
Hope it helps. PP. |
