Answer:

here's what I got, but I don't think it's correct

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{0.75 ft}{1day}$ × $\frac{12in}{1ft}$ × $\frac{1day}{24hrs}$ = $\frac{9in}{24hr}$

So, in 24 hours it grows 9 inches, but I'm not sure if I can go futther than that. If I were to try to find how much it grows in 1 hour, I would divide and get 2.666666666.... So I would round it to 2.7; sorry I'm not able to solve the problem.
