Answer:

0.15 inches per month

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

This problem is focused on the growth rate of a plant.

given data

the plants grow 5 inches in 34 months

and also that 1 month= 4 weeks

step two:

We can still say that

if 34 months see a growth of 5 inches

then 1 months will be X inches

cross multiply we have

X= 5/32 inches

step three:

converting this number to decimal we have

X= 0.15 inches per month

Therefore the growth rate would be

0.15 inches per month
