The correct answer is not provided in the given options.
To find the height of the basketball player's son, we can use the information given that the basketball player is 623 feet tall and his son is 1/4 as tall.
1. Begin by multiplying the height of the basketball player by 1/4 to find the height of his son.
623 ft * 1/4 = 155.75 ft
2. Next, convert the height of the son from decimal form to mixed number form.
155.75 ft = 155 ft + 0.75 ft
3. Since 0.75 is equivalent to 3/4, we can rewrite the height of the son as a mixed number.
155 ft + 3/4 ft = 155 3/4 ft
Therefore, the height of the basketball player's son is 155 3/4 feet.
