Answer 1

The complete question is as follows:

Jessica is a custodian at Oracle Arena. She waxes 20 $\mathbf{m^{2}}$ of the floor in $\mathbf{\frac{3}{5}}$ of and hour. At this rate, how many square meters can she wax per hour ?

Answer:

$\mathbf{\frac{100}{3}\approx33.33 \ m^{2} \ per \ hour}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\textrm{rate}=\frac{\textrm{Area waxed in square meter}}{\textrm{Time taken to wax in hours}}$

$\textrm{rate}=\frac{20 \ \textrm{m}^{2}}{\frac{3}{5} \ \textrm{hours}}$

$\textrm{rate}=\frac{20\times5}{3}$

$\mathbf{rate=\frac{100}{3}\approx33.33 \ m^{2} \ per \ hour}$
