4. Emily grew \( 1 / 4 \) inch in one month. If she continues to grow at that rate, how much will she grow in 3

To find out how much Emily will grow in 3 months, we can use the growth rate she has already experienced. 1. **Known Conditions:** - Growth rate per month: \( \frac{1}{4} \) inch - Time period: 3 months 2. **Calculation:** To find the total growth over 3 months, we multiply the monthly growth by the number of months: \[ \text{Total Growth} = \text{Growth Rate} \times \text{Number of Months} \] Substituting the known values: \[ \text{Total Growth} = \frac{1}{4} \times 3 \] 3. **Performing the Calculation:** \[ \text{Total Growth} = \frac{3}{4} \text{ inches} \] Thus, if Emily continues to grow at the same rate, she will grow \( \frac{3}{4} \) inches in 3 months.
