Bryce grew
3 and 1/2
inches each year for the past 4
years. How many inches total has Bryce grown in the past
4 years?
To find out how much Bryce has grown in the past 4 years, we need to multiply the growth rate (3 and 1/2 inches) by the number of years (4).
3 and 1/2 inches = 7/2 inches
So, Bryce has grown (7/2) inches per year for 4 years.
Multiplying (7/2) by 4, we get:
(7/2) * 4 = 28/2 = 14 inches
Therefore, Bryce has grown a total of 14 inches in the past 4 years.
