Question

Jeremy was 45 inches tall when he started kindergarten. He grew an average of 2.5

inches every year. Jeremy is now 62.5 inches tall.
Which equation can be used to find how many years ago Jeremy started kindergarten,
and how many years ago was it?

Answer 1

subtraction

Explanation:

its subtraction because if you do 62.5-2.5 it = 60 and then 60-2.5=57.5 57.5-2.5=55 55-2.5=52.5 52.5-2.5=50 50-2.5= 47.5 47.5-2.5 = 45 s so it was 7 or 8 years ago idk count them see how many times i did it
