Answer:

54

Explanation:

so we know that 1/4=15 and each 10 minutes he can print 36, 15-10 =5, we have 5 minutes left

which will be the half amount of pages that he printed in 10 minutes. 36/2=18

18+36=54 in 1/4

then multiply the answer by 3

54×3=216 in an hour

Answer:

1/4 hour - 54 pages

1 hour - 216 pages

Explanation:

If Jorges can print 36 pages in 10minutes, find the rate of printing by dividing the number of pages by the number of minutes.

36 / 10 = 3.6

The rate is 3.6 pages / min.

Use the rate for each time you need to find:

1/4 hour

There are 60 minutes in an hour. To find the number of minutes in 1/4 of an hour, divide 60 by 4.

1/4 of an hour is 15 minutes.

Multiply the number of pages per minute by 15.

3.6 X 15 = 54

Jorges printer can print 54 pages in an hour.

1 hour

There are 60 minutes in an hour.

Multiply the number of pages per minute by 60.

3.6 X 60 = 216

Jorges printer can print 216 pages in an hour.
