Question

Kaylee put an empty cup underneath a leaking faucet. After 1 1/2 hours, Kaylee collected 1/4 cup of water. What is the rate in cups per hour, at which the water is leaking from the faucet.

A 1/6 cups per hour


B 3/8 cups per hour


C 8/3 cups per hour


D 6/1 cups per hour

Answer 1

I think it is 6/1

Explanation:

You are wrong because 0.167 into a fraction is 167/1000 and that isn't one of the options but when I did it 1 1/2=3/2=1.5 and 1/4=0.25 so I did 1.5 divide by 0.25 and it gave me 6 so that why I think that my answer is correct and yours is not.
