Island Rate

Question

Molokaÿi _______ cm/yr
Kauaÿi _______ cm/yr
Midway _______ cm/yr
Suiko _______ cm/yr
Total _______ cm/yr
To find the average, add the rates of movement for the four islands and divide
by the number of islands used in the calculation, in this case 4.

Answer 1

To calculate the average rate of movement for the four islands mentioned (Molokaÿi, Kauaÿi, Midway, and Suiko), you would need to fill in the movement rates in centimeters per year (cm/yr) for each island. Once you have those values, you can follow these steps:

1. Add the Rates: Sum the rates of movement for the four islands. \[ \text{Total Rate} = \text{Rate of Molokaÿi} + \text{Rate of Kauaÿi} + \text{Rate of Midway} + \text{Rate of Suiko} \]

2. Calculate the Average: Divide the total rate by the number of islands (4). \[ \text{Average Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Rate}}{4} \]

Please provide the specific rates for each island to make the calculations.
