Question

A particular beach is eroding at a rate of 4 centimeters per year. A realtor converts this rate millimeters per day. Which expression, when evaluated, results in the correct units and numerical value?

Answer 1

Answer:

8/73 millimeters per  day

0.11 millimeters per  day

Step-by-step explanation:

A particular beach is eroding at a rate of 4 centimeters per year

1 centimeters  = 10 millimeters

1 year = 365 Days

4 centimeters = 40 millimeters

4 centimeters per year = 40 millimeters per year

=> 40 millimeters per 365 days

=> 40/365  millimeters per  day

= 8/73 millimeters per  day

= 0.11 millimeters per  day

Answer 2

4 cm/1 year x 10mm/1cm x 1 year/365 days
