Question

Herky found that 8 out of every 100 beans in his garden were nibbled by rabbits. how many beans can he expect to be damaged if there are 450 beans in his garden?

Answer 1

First, find the unit rate, which is, out of how many beans will 1 be nibbled by a rabbit. We can do this by dividing the amount of beans by the amount that had been nibbled:

$\sf 100\div 8=12.5$

So one out of every 12.5 beans are nibbled on. There are 450 beans in his garden, we can divide our unit rate by this to find out how many he can expect to be damaged:

$\sf 450\div 12.5=36$

So he can expect 36 beans in his garden to be damaged.
