The monkey's growth rate per day rounded to the nearest hundredth is;
0.03 pounds per day
- To solve this we need to convert first the monkey's weight at birth to pounds from ounces.
- Weight of monkey at birth = 48 ounces = 48/16 pounds = 3 pounds
- Weight of monkey a year after birth = 14 pounds
- Now, the difference in weight after a year = 14 - 3 = 11 pounds.
There are 365 days in a year and therefore, the increase in weight per day will be;
Rate of increase in weight per day = 11/365 = 0.03 pounds per day
In conclusion, the monkey's growth per day = 0.03 pounds per day
