Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{About 50 yr}}$

Explanation:

$\text{Time} = \text{150 m} \times \dfrac{\text{100 cm}}{\text{1 m}}\times \dfrac{\text{1 s}}{ 10^{-5}\text{ cm}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 da}}{\text{86 400 s }} \times \dfrac{\text{1 yr}}{\text{365.25 da}}\approx \text{50 yr}\\\\ \text{It took $\large \boxed{\textbf{about 50 yr}}$ for the waste to move from the dump to the homes.}$
