Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly,

We can tell by reading the question that they sell 48 cupcakes witch is 4 dozens every hour so if they continue to sell at that same rate then:

There are 8 hours between 9am and 5pm

∴ It is 48:1

That means 48 cupcakes per hour this is equation is a direct proportion so if any number increases so will the other

So if it is 48:1 then x:8 with be = 48x8

∴ Sarah and Jean will be able to sell 384 cupcakes
