a machinest can produce 114 parts in 6 minutes.at this rate,how many parts can the machinist produce in 15 minutes

Answer 1

The first thing we need to do is find the rate of parts for 15 minutes.

So, we divide 114 parts per 6 minutes and get 19 parts per minute

Then we multiply this rate per minute by 15 minutes

The answer is 285

$Part1\\114\div6=19\\\\Part 2\\19\times15=285$

Answer 2

To do this problem, start off with figuring out how many parts can be produced in 1 minute. To do this divide 114 by 6. 114/6=19. Then, you will need to figure out how many parts can be produced in 15 minutes. To do this multiply 15 by 19. 15 x 19= 285
