My question is: Josue planted a tree in his backyard that grows at the rate of 2 feet per week. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, what would be the tree's total height after 4 months (assuming each month is 4 weeks long)? Your thoughts:
Since a month has four weeks, the tree will increase its height by 2 feet for 4 * 4 = 16 weeks after four months of growing. Since the tree grows at 2 feet per week, after 16 weeks, the tree would have increased its height by 2 * 16 = 32 feet. If the tree is currently 10 feet tall, its height after four months will be 10 + 32 = 42 feet. The final answer: 42.
