At 0 hours: 24 boxes
After 1 hour: 24/2 = 12 boxes
After 2 hours: 12/2 = 6 boxes
After 3 hours: 6/2 = 3 boxes
She will have 3 boxes after 3 hours.
Hope this helps :)
19.635 square inches.
Assuming that the pots are arranged in a straight line, each pot would have a diameter of 5, because 5 • 3 = 15, and 15 is the length of the box. The radius of the base of one pot is therefore 2.5.
A = pi • r^2 = pi • 2.5^2 = 19.635 (approximation)
If you use the common denominator of .5 for both sides of the ratio, you will arrive at 3:5 as a simplified form.
