Question

Assume that life on Earth began 3.5 billion years ago. To the nearest percent, how much of this time have anthropoids been living?

Answer 1

Answer:

Anthropoids lived for approximately 0.86% of the total time.

Explanation:

• Anthropoids are the higher developed organisms that includes apes and ape mans.

• The age of earth is 3500 million and anthropoids lived for about 30 million years.
• By the simple calculations we can find out the data in percent which gives us the result nearest to 0.86%.
• That means 0.86% of 3.5 billion year is equivalent to 30 million years (time that was lived by anthropoids).
