Answer:

26.28km further

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

distance moved in a day= 29.2 meters

for 1000 days the  glacier will move  x meters

cross multiply

x=29.2*1000

x=29200m

x=29.2km

distance moved in a day= 29.2 meters

for 100 days the  glacier will move  x meters

cross multiply

x=29.2*100

x=2920

x=2920m

The difference in distance between 1000days and 100days is

=29200-2920

=26280

=26.28km

26.28km further
