Question

Colton can rake 79/10 bags of leaves each hour. How many bags of leaves will colton rake and fill in 6 hours.

I need to know the steps to answering this.

Answer 1

Colton will rake and fill
`(237)/(5)` bags of leaves.

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have that Colton can rake
`(79)/(10)` bags of leaves each hour.

2. Then, to calculate the amount of bags of leaves that he will rake and fill in 6 hours (which you can call
`x`), you must multiply these hours by the amount of bags he can rake in 1 hour:

`x=(6)((79)/(10))\\x=(474)/(10)`

3. Simplify:

`x=(237)/(5)` bags of leaves.
