Question

Brian irons \dfrac29 9 2 ​ start fraction, 2, divided by, 9, end fraction of his shirt in 3\dfrac353 5 3 ​ 3, start fraction, 3, divided by, 5, end fraction minutes. Brian irons at a constant rate. At this rate, how much of his shirt does he iron each minute?

Answer 1

For this case we can make the following rule of three:
 2/9 ------> 3/5
 x ---------> 1
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (1 / (3/5)) * (2/9)
 Rewriting we have:
 x = (5/3) * (2/9)
 x = 10/27
 Answer:
 he irons 10/27 of his shirt every minute
