Question

Sea level changes occur at a rate of 10m per 1,000 years. How much will the sea level change over 100,000 years?

A. 10m
B. 1,000m
C. 10,000m
D. 100,000m

Answer 1

1.000m

Explanation:

I divided 100.000 with 1.000 equals 100

the reason is if I find how many times 1.000 goes into 100.000 then I can use that number to times 10m because changes occur at a rate of 10m per 1,000 years.

`100.000 / 1.000 = 100`

that means that 100.000 is divided up 100 times with each one of those divisions being 1.000.

`100 * 10 = 1.000`

this means how many times 1.000 went into 100.000 which is 100 and if every 1.000 years = 10m three times how many times 1.000 goes into 100.000 with 10 .
