Find how much it grew:
53 - 20 = 33 inches.
Divide the amount it grew by the original length
33/20 = 1.65
Subtract 1:
1.65 - 1 = 0.65
Multiply by 100 for percent:
0.65 x 100 = 65%
The percent increase is 65%
Answer:
are there any answer choices?
In 1414 hours it covered 700 miles
In 1 hour it would have covered (700/1414) mile
In 33 hours it will then cover : 700/1414 * 33 = 16.34
So in 33 hours it will cover ≈ 16.34 miles.
