Answer:

The numbers of toys per hour is 60c/m toys

Explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- an algebraic expression is an expression formed from integer

constants, variables, and the algebraic operations like addition,

subtraction, multiplication, division

- Ex: 5x² − 7xy + a is an algebraic expression

* Lets solve the problem

- Kevin makes c toys in m minutes

∴ His rate is c/m toy per minute

- To find the number of toys in one hour multiply his rate by the time

in minutes

∵ In one hour there are 60 minutes

∵ His rate = c/m (toy/minute)

∵ The time is 60 minutes

∴ The number of toys = c/m × 60 = 60c/m toys

∴ The numbers of toys per hour is 60c/m toys
