Question

HELP!! I am so desperate like I don't even care if the answer is wrong I just need something that makes sense.

A plant grows 3/4 of an inch every week.

Write the ratio in fractional form to determine how many inches the plant grows in a month. (Assume 4 weeks in 1 month.)

Answer 1

3 inches

Explanation:

4(3/4) <- Beacuse there are 4 weeks and every four weeks it grows that amount.

So that being said, in a month the plant would grow:

12/4=3

So 3 inches every month

Hope it helps!

Wait...are you an army????

Answer 2

Answer: The plant grows
`(3)/(1)` of an inch every month.

Explanation:

Given : A plant grows
`(3)/(4)` of an inch every week.

To find : The length of plant grows in a month.

We assume that 1 month = 4 weeks.

Then, the length of plant grows in 4 weeks :-

`(3)/(4)*4=(3)/(1)\text{ of an inches}`

Hence, the plant grows
`(3)/(1)` of an inch every month.
