Question

Pat bounces a basketball 25 times in 30 seconds.At the rate,approximately how many time will pat bounce the ball in 150 seconds

Answer 1

Divide the total time, by the time they already dribbled the ball:

150 seconds / 30 seconds = 5

Multiply that by the number of dribbles in 30 seconds:

5 x 25 = 125 total dribbles.

Answer 2

Answer:

He will bounce 125 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Pat bounces the basketball 25 times in 30 seconds,

So, we can write,

$30\text{ seconds}=25\text{ times}$

$1\text{ second}=\frac{25}{30}\text{ times}$

Multiply both sides by 150,

We get,

$150\text{ seconds}=150\times \frac{25}{30}=\frac{375}{30}=1250\text{ times}$

Hence, he will bounce 125 times.
