Question

ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes. how much longer would it take him to deliver 56 papers than 41 papers?

Answer 1

We are given

Ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes

so, number of papers =6 in time =24 minutes

so, firstly we can find rate

rate = ( number of papers)/( time taken)

$r=\frac{6}{24} =\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find times

Time for 56 papers:

we are given

number of papers =56

rate is

$r=\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find time

$t_1=\frac{56}{r}$

$t_1=\frac{56}{\frac{1}{4}}$

$t_1=224min$

Time for 41 papers:

we are given

number of papers =41

rate is

$r=\frac{1}{4}$

now, we can find time

$t_2=\frac{41}{r}$

$t_2=\frac{41}{\frac{1}{4}}$

$t_2=164min$

now, we can find time difference

$t=t_1-t_2$

so, we can plug values

$t=224-164$

$t=60 min$..............Answer

Answer 2

Answer:  It would take him 224 minutes to deliver 56 papers and 164 minutes to deliver 41 paper. It would take him 60 minutes more to deliver 56 papers than 41 papers.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have that he delivers papers at a rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes. Therefore, you have:

$\frac{24}{6}=4$

2. The time to deliver 56 papers is:

$(56)(4)=224$minutes

3.  The time to deliver 41 papers is:

$(41)(4)=164$minutes

4. The difference is:

$224minutes-164minutes=60minutes$
