So you would form a proportion 12/19824=1/x then you would cross multiply 12x= 19824 next you would isolate the variable by using inverse operations 19824 divided by 12 = 1652 toy castles

Answer:

1652 toys will be assembled in each hour by the company.

Explanation:

A toy factory assembles 19824 toy castles over a period = 12 hours

We have to calculate the number of castles assembles each hour.

Number castles assembled per hour =
\frac{\text{number of castles assembled}}{\text{Total time}}

=
(19824)/(12)

= 1652 toys

Therefore, 1652 toys will be assembled in each hour by the company.
