Question

The bakers at Healthy Bakery can make 320 bagels in 2 hours. How many bagels can they bake in 14 hours? What was that rate per hour?

Answer 1

2 x 7 = 14
320 x 7 = 2240 bagels in 14 hours

It’s a ratio problem

Answer 2

Explanation:

It is given that The bakers at Healthy Bakery can make 320 bagels in 2 hours.

Therefore, in 2 hours=320 bagels are made

In 1 hour=
`(320)/(2)` bagels are made

In 14 hours=
`(320)/(2){*}14`

=
`320{*}7`

=
`2240`.

Therefore, in 14hours, 2240 bagels are made.

Now, rate per hour will be =
`(Numberof bagels made)/(total time taken)`

=
`(2240)/(14)`

=
`160 bagels per hour`
