Manny has a tree that grows at the rate of fifty centimeters every two weeks. If the tree is currently 2 meters tall, how tall, in centimeters, will the tree be in 4 months? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
A month has four weeks, so there are 4 * 4 = 16 weeks in four months. Since the tree grows for five centimeters every two weeks, it will grow by fifty centimeters every week for 16 / 2 = 8 weeks. The tree will increase in height by 8 * 50 = 400 centimeters after four months. Since 1 meter equals 100 centimeters, the tree is currently 2 * 100 = 200 centimeters tall. After growing by 400 centimeters for four months, the tree will be 400 + 200 = 600 centimeters tall.
Therefore, the answer is 600.
