Growth Amount

[Guest]

The fastest growing plant, Bamboo, grows approx. 3.28 ft. every 24 hours. Determine amount of growth in 1 minute.

Not sure how to solve.

You have to find how many minutes have 24 hours.
24 hours = 24 * 60 = 1,440 minutes

And now divide
3.28 : 1440 =

Divide 3.28 ft by 1440 minutes (24 hours × 60) to get growth per minute: about 0.00228 ft per minute.
