(1/6) / (1/4) = x / 1....1/6 acre to 1/4 hr = x acres to 1 hr
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(1/4)(x) = (1/6)(1)
1/4x = 1/6
x = 1/6 * 4/1
x = 4/6 which reduces to 2/3....so she can mow 2/3 of an acre in 1 hr <=

RSB [31]

Answer:

a) 22 batches

c) 7.3 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

a) It takes 0.25 cup of sugar to make a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I have 5.50 cups of sugar. How many batches of cookies can I make?

0.25 cup = 1 batch

5.5 cup = x

0.25 cup × x = 5.5 cup × 1 batch

x = 5.5 cup × 1 batch/0.25 cup

x = 22

I can make 22 batches of chocolate chip cookies. You may use the scratchpad to show your work.

x = 5.5 cup × 1 batch/0.75 cup

x = 7.3 batches

I can make 7.3 batches of lemon cookies. You may use the scratchpad to show your work.
