Answer:

26190 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance moved by a glacier = 29.1 meter per day

For 100 days, the distance moved = 29.1 meter per day * 100 days = 2910 meters

For 1000 days, the distance moved = 29.1 meter per day * 1000 days = 29100 meters

Therefore the distance farther  it move in 1,000 days than it will move in 100 days = distance moved in 1000 days - distance moved in 100 days

farther distance = 29100 meters - 2910 meters = 26190 meters

We will find that the glacier moves 10 times more in 1,000 days than in 100 days.

We know that the glacier moves about 29.1 meters per day.

Then we need to find how much it moves in 1,000 days and in 100 days, we will get:

  • In 1,000 days it moves: (29.1 meters/day)*1,000 days = 29,100 meters
  • in 100 days it moves: (29.1 meters/day)*100 days = 2,910 meters.

To find how much farter the glacier moves in 1,000 days than in 100 days we need to take the quotient between the above two distances:

29,100 meters/2,910 meters = 10

So the glacier moves 10 times more in 1,000 days than in 100 days.
