Answer 1

The complete question is as follows:

Jessica is a custodian at Oracle Arena. She waxes 20
`\mathbf{m^(2)}` of the floor in
`\mathbf{(3)/(5)}` of and hour. At this rate, how many square meters can she wax per hour ?

Answer:

`\mathbf{(100)/(3)\approx33.33 \ m^(2) \ per \ hour}`

Explanation:

`\textrm{rate}=\frac{\textrm{Area waxed in square meter}}{\textrm{Time taken to wax in hours}}`

`\textrm{rate}=\frac{20 \ \textrm{m}^(2)}{(3)/(5) \ \textrm{hours}}`

`\textrm{rate}=(20*5)/(3)`

`\mathbf{rate=(100)/(3)\approx33.33 \ m^(2) \ per \ hour}`
