Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

90 centimetres per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

One of the Bamboo species growth can be seen.

Growth in $\frac{1}{3}$ of a day = 30 cm

To find:

The growth per day in centimetres as a proper fraction, mixed number or whole number.

Solution:

If we are given that:

The growth of a bamboo tree is $y$ centimetres in $x$ number of days.

Then growth per day can be found by dividing the total growth of bamboo tree by the number of days.

Formula can be written as:

Growth per day = $\frac{y}{x}$

We are given that:

$y = 30\ cm\\x = \frac{1}{3}\ days$

Putting the values, we get:

$\dfrac{30}{\frac{1}3}\\\Rightarrow \bold{90\ cm}$
