Question

Joey fills 1/5 of a Toffee box and 1/25 of a minute how much time will it take to fill a Toffee box

Answer 1

Answer:

$1/5\ minutes$ or $12\ sec$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Joey fills $1/5$ of a Toffee box in $1/25$ of a minute

so

by proportion

Find how much time will it take to fill a Toffee box

$\frac{(1/25)}{(1/5)}\frac{minutes}{Toffe\ box} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{minutes}{Toffe\ box}\\ \\x=5/25\\ \\x=1/5\ minutes$

Convert to seconds

$1/5\ minutes=(1/5)*60=12\ sec$

Answer 2

It will take 1/5 of a minute or 12 seconds. Multiply the 1/25 minute by 5 to get the time it will take to fill the whole Toffee box.
