Mr. Mandel gave his class 12 minutes to read. 5 1/2 pages in that time. At what rate, in pages per hour, did Claire read?
1 answer:
5 1/2 pages in 12 minutes.
11/2 pages in 12 minutes
How many pages in an hour?
well, an hour has 60 minutes
Let's write a proportion
11/2 / 12 = x/60
cross multiply
(11/2 * 60) = 12x
330 = 12x
divide both sides by 12
27.5 or 27 1/2 = x
27.5 pages per hour.
