Question

Suzanne can put up 20 feet of fencing in 64 minutes. How many minutes will it take her to put up 35 feet of fencing?

Answer 1

112 minutes

Explanation:

Suzanne can put up 20 feet of fencing in 64 minutes.

We need to find minutes it will take to put up 35 feet of fencing.

20 feet = 64 minutes

1 feet = (64/20) minutes

For 35 feet,

`35\ feet=(64)/(20)* 35\\\\=112\ minutes`

So, it will take 112 minutes to put up 35 feet of fencing.
