Question

Ben and Ella are filling goodie bags for a party. Each goodie bag needs an eraser, a bubble wand, and a few candy bar bites. Ben filled 25 goodie bags in 20 minutes. Ella filled 27 goodie bags in 24 minutes. Who filled goodie bags at a faster pace?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ben

Step-by-step explanation:

25 goodies = 20 minutes

27 goodies = 24 minutes

Let's use ratio, divide both of them by their minute

25/20 = 20/20

27/24 = 24/24

1.25 goodies = 1 minute

1.12 goodies = 1 minute

1.25 is bigger than 1.12.
