Justin measures the heights of three different trees: a maple, a pine and a spruce. The maple tree is \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) taller than the pine tree and the pine tree is \(4 \mathrm{~m}\) shorter than the spruce tree. If the ratio of the height of the maple tree to the spruce tree is \(t\), what is the height of the spruce tree, in metres? (Write your answer in the form \(\frac{a}{b}\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are positive integers with no common divisor larger than 1.)

Present the answer in LaTex format: \boxed{Your answer}
