Given that the height of the tallest building in Anne's home town = 617 ft

We have to find the height of the tallest building in Laurie's home town.

So let the height of the tallest building in Laurie's home town = x

Now question says that the tallest building in Anne's home town is about 233 ft taller than the tallest building in Laurie's home town. So we can write:

Anne's Home Town = Laurie's home town + 233

617 = x + 233

617 - 233 = x

384 = x

Hence final answer is the height of the tallest building in Laurie's home town = 384 feet.
