Question

You have bake cookies and cupcakes for a school fundraiser,and now you must package them. Each cupcakes takes 2 minutes to wrap and each cookie takes 1 minutes to wrap. If you only have 1 hour to packages baked goods, how many of each can you wrap?

Answer 1

If you only want to box all of the cookies in that hour, then you must divide 60(there are 60 minutes in a hour)/2=30. So you could box 30 cupcakes in a hour. If you wanted to just box cookies, then 60/1, so you could box 60 cookies in one full hour. If you want to only use half of the time for each, divide the original answer by 2
30/2=15
60/2=30
