Question

If 42 pushups is done in 3 minutes how many can be done in 5

Answer 1

So first find out how many can be done in 1 minute.
In an equation it would be 3x=42
Divide by 3
x=14
So 14 pushups can be done in 1 minute (congratulations to this person I can barely do one haha)
So now you multiply what you can do in 1 minute by 5 minutes.
14x5= 70 pushups
