Answer:
It'll take him 1/4 hours to decorate the two signs.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to know how long Roberto will take to decorate all the signs we need to find their surface area, since they're rectangular their area is given by the product of their dimensions.
First sign:
area1 = (2/3)*(1/4) = 2/12 = 1/6 foot²
Second sign:
area2 = (1/2)*(1/3) = 1/6 foot²
The total area he has to paint is the sum of their individual areas, so we have:
total area = area1 + area2 = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3 foot²
To find out how long he'll take to decorate this area we can use a rule of three as shown bellow:
3/4 hour -> 1 foot²
x hour -> 1/3 foot²
x = (3/4)*(1/3) = 1/4 hours

Answers:
What is the ratio? 120:2
What is the unit rate? 60:1
What is the rate? 60 jumping jacks per minute
===================================================
Further Explanation:
To find the ratio of jumping jacks to minutes, you just write the two values 120 and 2 separated by a colon. That's how we get 120:2 as our first answer.
--------
Once we have 120:2, we divide both parts by 2 to get 60:1
120/2 = 60
2/2 = 1
The reason why we do this is so that the "2 minutes" turns into "1 minute". A unit ratio has the time value in unit increments so we can see how many jumping jacks Samuel can do. Writing "60:1" means "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute"
-------
Saying "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute" is the same as saying "60 jumping jacks per minute", which is similar to a car's speed of something like 60 miles per hour. The unit "X per Y" is the template for speed, where X is the number of items you get done and Y is the unit of time. In this case, X = 60 jumping jacks and Y = 1 minute.
