Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

so you can use proportions for this. Since 17 small planters can be made in 5 days you would put 5 Days under 17 SP (Sp = small planters) Then you would do 17 times x which equals 17x and 5 times 50 which equals 250. you would then divide them by each other . 250 divided by 17 is a bunch of numbers but to shorten it you can just put 14.705 or 15 if you round it.

17sp 50

----------------- 250/17 = x =14.705

5D x

you would then do the same to the other Large planters.

12LP 24. 120/12 = x = 10

-------------

5D. x

the question is how many days to make them ALL. so you would then add 10 + 14.705 which equals 24.705. then you can round that to 25 DAYS.

Answer:

25 Days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I figured out the rate per day of each size to be completed:

Small Planters: 17/5 = 3.4 can be completed in 1 day.

Large Planters: 12/5 = 2.4 can be completed in 1 day.

Second we take the order and create an equation with our new found per day rates:

I am going to use T =total time

T= (50/3.4) + (24/2.4)

Remember the rules of PEMDAS applies here, so division within the parenthesis have to be done first.

T= 14.705 + 10

Finally our answer is:

T= 24.705 or ~ 25
