a bean plant was 1.5 meters high one week ago. In 7 days it grew 15 centimeters. Find the current height of the bean plant

1 answer

We have:

The height of the bean plant 1 week ago = 1.5 meters
The growth of the bean plant in 7 days = 15 centimeters = 0.15 meters (since 1 meter = 100 centimeters)

To find the current height of the bean plant, we need to add the growth to the initial height:

Current height of the bean plant = Initial height + Growth
Current height of the bean plant = 1.5 meters + 0.15 meters
Current height of the bean plant = 1.65 meters

Therefore, the current height of the bean plant is 1.65 meters.
