Atype of bamboo holds the guinness world record for fastest growing plant. it can grow up to 91 cm per day. how fast in inches per hour can a bamboo grow? show your work using the correct conversion factors. show all work

Hey there! This problem seems tricky, but once we figure out how to solve, it becomes much more simple.

It looks like we have two conversions here:

Centimeters to Inches

Days to Hours

To convert them, we need to know their conversion rate, or in other words, how many centimeters are in an inch and how many hours are in a day.

2.54 cm. = 1 in.

1 day = 24 hours

Now that we have these in mind, all we need to do is a bit of division.

We will start with the expression "91 ÷ 24." This will break up our 91 centimeters into 24 hours, giving us the number of centimeters per hour. We use the "curvy equal sign" to show an approximate value.

91 ÷ 24 ≈ 3.7917

But wait! We aren't quite done yet. That expression only represents the number of centimeters per hour. Our question asks us for the inches per hour. Therefore, we need to do another expression.

If we use the expression "3.7917 ÷ 2.54," we will almost get an exact value. Keep in mind that the "2.54" represents how many centimeters are in an inch. Again, the "curvy equal sign" represents an approximate value.

3.7917 ÷ 2.54 ≈ 1.49

Using the logic above, we can say that the bamboo grows about 1.49 inches per hour.
