Question

A coral reef grows 0.19m every week. How much does it grow in 14 weeks? Write your answer in centimeters.

Answer 1

The coral reef grows 266 cm in 14 weeks.

Explanation:

Lets convert 0.19 meters to centimeters.

1m= 100cm

0.19m×100= 19 cm

It grows 19 cm every week, so:

`(1w)/(19 cm) *14 =(14w)/(x= 266 cm)`

So, the coral reef grows 266 cm in 14 weeks.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

0.19m x 14 = 2.66m
2.66m = 266cm
