Question

During the spring, when the snow and ice melt in the Inka Binka Mountains, it causes the Habooka River to rise. If the river rises 42 cm in one week, how much does the river rise in one day? (Hint: how many days in a week?

Answer 1

To find the daily rise of the Habooka River, divide the weekly rise by the number of days in a week. The river rises 6 cm per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

When considering the rise in the water level of the Habooka River due to the melting snow and ice in the Inka Binka Mountains, you must first understand that there are 7 days in a week. If the river rises 42 cm in one week, to find the daily rise, you should divide that amount by the number of days in a week.

Here's the calculation: 42 cm ÷ 7 days = 6 cm per day. So, the river rises by 6 cm each day.

Answer 2

6 centimeters per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 7 days in one week, 42 cm divided by 7 days will equal to the answer 6 centimeters per day.
