Bridget put an empty cup underneath a leaking McDonald's Coca Cola machine. After 1/2 hours. Bridget collected 1/4 cup of Coca Cola.

What is the rate, in cups, per hour at which the Cola is leaking?

For every hour. It will leak a half of cup (1/2). If 30 mins= 1/4 of a cup. Times it but two. 60 or 1 hour = 2/4 or simplified 1/2
