Question

The number of cakes Ebony can decorate varies directly with the amount of time she spends decorating cakes. She can decorated 6 cakes in 1 1/2 hours. How many cakes can Ebony decorate in 8 hpurs?​

Answer 1

1. 1 1/2 hours can also be 3/2 hours.

2. 3/2 divide by 6. To know how much Ebony makes an hour.

(3/2 divide by 6, is also 3/2 multiply 1/6 =1/4. Which equals. 1/4 of cake each hour )

If 1/4 of cake an hour

It would be 2 cake for 8 hours

(1/4 multiply 8 is 2)

Anyway, the answer is 2 hours.
