Put this into ratio form:
20 baskets/ 4 minutes.
This means for every 4 minutes, you can make 20 baskets.
Now solve for 1 minute...how many baskets can you make in one minute.
You can solve this in many ways:
1. Cross Multiply:
20/4 = x/1...20×1= 20 ÷ 4= 5 baskets per minute
2. Simplify- (simpler way to solve)
20 baskets ÷ 4 minutes= 5 baskets in 1 minute
3. Critical Thinking:
how many times can 4 go into 20? 5 times. So there are:
5 baskets per minute
