Question

A packing operator can assemble 4 cardboard boxes in 5 minutes. At this rate, how many boxes can she assemble in 25 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:

She can assemble 20 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Create a table

# of Boxes                    Time

4                        =>        5 min

x                        =>       25 min

2. Use the table to cross multiply.

5 · x = 4 · 25

5x = 100

5x/5 = 100/5

x = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

look at this step:

4 : 5 = X : 25

X = 4×25/5 = 100/5 = 20
