+10%2F5+ km/hr = +2+ km/hr
----------
In units:
( cm/day) x ( days/yr ) x ( m/cm ) = m/yr
and
( cm/day) x ( days/yr ) x ( m/cm ) x ( km/m ) = km/yr
-----------
+10%2F1+%2A+365%2F1+%2A+1%2F100+=+36.5+ m/yr
and
+10%2F1+%2A+365%2F1+%2A+1%2F100+%2A+1%2F1000+=+.0365+ km/yr
---------
+25%2F150+=+1%2F6+ g/cm3
