The baby gorilla grew 340 grams in the first 10 days. This is an average of 34 grams per day. The baby gorilla grew 340 grams in the next 10 days. This is an average of 34 grams per day. The baby gorilla grew at the same rate in the first 10 days and the next 10 days.

Here is the solution:

340 grams / 10 days = 34 grams per day

340 grams / 10 days = 34 grams per day

34 grams per day = 34 grams per day

Therefore, the average number of grams that the baby gorilla grew each day during the first 10 days and during the next 10 days is 34 grams per day.
