A company needs to take 10 sample sensor readings. If the sensor collects data at 1/2

of a sample per second, how long will it take the company to take all 10 samples?

It would take 20 seconds. Because it says 1/2 a sample per second, it would take 2 second to produce 1.

10 (the amount of sensors)
2 (seconds it takes to create a full sensor)

10 x 2 = 20. Therefore, your answer is 20.
