Question

Ms. Johnson owns a cabinet business that installs cabinets in kitchens. Her employees can install 2/3 of a

kitchen cabinet set in 1/5 of an hour.

How many kitchen cabinet sets can be installed by her workers in 1 hour?

Express your answer as an improper fraction.

Answer 1

10/3 of the cabinet

Explanation:

Given data

We are given that in 1/5 hour they can install 2/3 kitchen cabinet

We want to find out how many of the kitchen cabinet they can install in one hour

Hence

in 1/5 hour they installed 2/3 cabinet

in 1 hour they will install x cabinet

cross multiply

x* 1/5= 2/3

divide both sides by 1/5

x= 2/3/1/5

x= 2/3*5/1

x= 10/3 of the cabinet
