Answer:
The tree's circumference in centimetres is 42.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with correcting the measurement error made by Ames.
This is a direct question that we can deal with in a simple fashion. All the question is asking us is to make a unit conversion from inches to centimetre
From the question, 1 inch = 2.5 cm
Thus, 17 inch = x cm
x cm = (17 inch × 2.5 cm)/1 inch
x cm = 42.5 cm
