Given:
15% of its height each day
27 inches on day 10.

How tall was it yesterday?

27 represents 115% of the height yesterday. So we divided 27 by 115% to get yesterdays height.

27 ÷ 115% = 23.48 inches.

The plant was 23.48 inches tall yesterday.

To check:
23.48 x 15% = 3.52 inches
23.48 + 3.52 = 27 inches

10 laps around track each day. Each lap around the track is 400 meters. How many day will take kali to run a total 12 kilometers
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's convert 400 meters to km (kilometers):

To find km from m we divide the meters by 1000:

400/1000 = 0.4

Therefore, there are 0.4 km in 1 meter.

Kali runs 10 laps every day, since 1 lap is 0.4 km we can multiply 10 by 0.4 to see how many kilometers they run in 1 day:

(10)(0.4) = 4

Kali runs 4 kilometers every day

Now, we can find how long it will take Kali to run a total of 12 kilometers by dividing 12 by 4

12/4 = 3

It will take Kali 3 days to run a total of 12 kilometers.
