A young tree grows 6 cm per year. use the equation height = 6 cm x number of years to find how many years the tree would take to grow 1 m

100cm = 1m, 100 divided by 6 is 16.6

The tree grows 6cm per year and we need to find out how long it will take to grow 1 meter. We know that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters. So:

6x = 100

x = 16.67

It will take 16.67 years (or one and two-thirds of a year) for the tree to reach 1 meter.
