Baseballs are manufactured in groups of 4. Sporting goods stores sell the

baseballs in packages of 3. Therefore, 3/4 of a group from the factory are
used to make a store package. How many store packages can be made
from 3 factory groups of baseballs?

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The baseballs are manufactured in groups of 4 together.

And, in stores baseballs are sold in a package of 3 baseballs.

So, 3/4 of one group from the factory is used to make one store package.

Then, 1 group from the factory is used to make 4/3 store packages.

{Simply by using the unitary method,}

Therefore, 3 factory groups are used to make
(4*3)/(3) =4 store packages. (Answer)
