On the first bounce, it will reach 1/4 x 256 height.

1/4 x 256 = 64

On the second bounce it will reach 64 x 1/4 height.

64 x 1/4 = 16

On the third bounce it will reach 16 x 1/4 height.

16 x 1/4 = 4.

You're final answer should be 4 feet. Hope this helps!
With the work shown before this (my) comment is how you work it out and I can confirm that 4 feet is the correct answer
