Question 1
If 15 men can manufacture 27 baskets in an hour, how many baskets would 45 men manufacture in 40 minutes?
Correct Answer Explanation
In 1 hour, 15 men make 27 baskets.
In 40 min \(\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\) hr\(\right)\), 15 men make \(27 \times \dfrac{2}{3} = 18\) baskets.
45 men (3× more): \(18 \times 3 = 54\) baskets.
In 40 min \(\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\) hr\(\right)\), 15 men make \(27 \times \dfrac{2}{3} = 18\) baskets.
45 men (3× more): \(18 \times 3 = 54\) baskets.
