Question

Michael bought 160 hotdogs were eating competition he spends $240 an hour how much did each hotdog cost

Answer 1

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we know that its $240 per 160 hot dogs

2. make that a ratio - 240:160

3. simplify the ratio so that the amount of hot dogs is at one (so divide both sides by 160)

4. so 240/160 = 1.5 .   160/160 = 1

5. 1.5:1

6. so for every one hotdog, you pay $1.50
