Question

Ramon knows there are 60 seconds in 1 minute. He writes the equation 60s= to find the number of minutes, m, in any number of seconds, s.

Ramon's equation tell him the correct number of minutes in any number of seconds.

The number of minutes should be (BLANK) the number of seconds. In Ramon's equation, the number of minutes would be (BLANK) the number of seconds.

The number of seconds should be (BLANK) the number of minutes.

The correct equation is (BLANK)



The options for the first blank was Will/Will Not

The options for the second blank were Less Than/Greater Than/Equal To

The options for the 3rd blank were the same as the 2nd

The options for the 4th blank were M=60s/ S=60m/ M + 60 = s/ S+60=M / M + S = 60

Answer 1

The number of minutes should be less than the number of seconds
In Ramons equation the number of minutes would be more than the number of seconds
The number of seconds should be more than the number of minutes
The right equation is S=60m because you plug in the number of minutes for 'm' and you get how many seconds in the given amount of minutes, which is S

Answer 2

Explanation:

This question is not correct; the correct question with options is here.

Ramon knows there are 60 seconds in 1 minute. He writes the equation 60s = m to find the number of minutes m, in any number of seconds, s.

Ramon's equation (WILL/WILL NOT) tell him the correct number of seconds in any number of seconds.

The number of minutes should be (LESS THAN/ GREATER THAN/EQUAL TO) the number of seconds. In Ramon's equation, the number of minutes would be (LESS THAN/ GREATER THAN/ EQUAL TO) the number of seconds.

The correct equation is (M = 60S / S = 60M / M+60 = S / S+60 = M / M+60 = S).

In this question, The first option should be (WILL NOT).

Second option should be (LESS THAN).

Because in one minute number of seconds are more.

Third option should be (GREATER THAN).

Because when we plug in the value of seconds in Ramon's equation number of minutes becomes more than seconds which in incorrect.

Fourth option should be (S = 60M).

Example: When we plug in the value of minute as 1, by the equation S = 60 M number of seconds in 1 minute seconds will be 60, which is the correct answer.
