Bamboo can grow as much as 35.4 inches per day. If the bamboo continues to grow at this rate,
about how many meters tall, to the nearest tenth of a meter, would it be at the end of 5 weeks?
Assume it starts at ground level. (Use 1 in. = 2.54 cm.)
How would I set this up to solve?

Never mind I just solved it
35.4in/day * 2.54cm/in * 5weeks * 7days/week * 1m/1000cm
= (35.4*2.54*5*7)/1000 = 3.147 m
= (35.4*2.54*5*7)/1000 = 3.147 m
