Question

Destiny grew 15 plants with 3 seed packets. How many seed packets does Destiny need to have a total of 65 plants in her backyard? Solve using unit rates.

Answer 1

Answer: she would have to use 5 seed packets

This is because every seed packet has 15 plants so 15 x 5 would equal 75

If you only use 4 packets you would be short 5 plants so you have to add another packet to get all 65 plants
