For the following problem, choose the correct proportion.

The Empire State Building is 1250 ft tall. The Statue of Liberty is 305 ft tall. At a certain time of day, the Statue of Liberty casts a shadow of 165 ft. What is the length of the shadow cast by the Empire State Building at the same time of day?

• $\frac{1250\ ft}{x\ ft}=\frac{165\ ft}{305\ ft}$

• $\frac{x\ ft}{1250\ ft}=\frac{305\ ft}{165\ ft}$

• $\frac{1250\ ft}{165\ ft}=\frac{x\ ft}{305\ ft}$

• $\frac{1250\ ft}{x\ ft}=\frac{305\ ft}{165\ ft}$
