A tree grows 35 cm in 2 years. If it continues to grow at the same rate determine how long it would take to grow 85 cm
We set up a proportion of cm to years where y is the number of years it takes to grow 85 cm:
35/2 = 85/y
To solve this proportion for y, we type it in our search engine and we get:
y = 4.86
