Question

The bakers at Healthy Bakery can make 200 bagels in 2 hours.How many bagels can they bake in 12 hours?What was that rate per hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rate per hour: 100 bagels/hour

In 12 hours: 1200 bagels are made

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question, start by finding how many bagels can be made in the unit of time: "1 hour." That way it is easy to find how many bagels are made in any amount of hours.

If in 2 hours, 200 bagels are made, then in one hour 100 bagels are made

This means a rate of 100 bagels per hour

Now if in one hour 100 bagels are made, then in 12 hours 12 times 100 bagels will be made. Therefore, in 12 hours a total of: 100 times 12 bagels are made, that is: 1200 bagels in 12 hours.

Answer 2

It would be 1200 bagels for 12 hours
