Answer 1

Answer:

Lisa can shelve at least 6 books in 1 minute time.

Explanation:

Given:

The public library has volunteers shelve book after they have been returned.

Lisa shelve 165 book in 25 minutes.

Patricia shelves 198 books in 45 minutes.

To Find:

We have to find how many can Lisa shelve each minute?

Solution:

Now, we know that, number of books she can shelve = $\frac{(number of books she shelve in 25 minutes)}{(25 minutes time)}$

Number of books she can shelve = $\frac{165}{25}$ = 6.6

Hence, she can shelve at least 6 books in 1 minute time.
