Question

Suppose a local office store has a press that can print 54,000 brochures per hour. How many brochures can be printed during a 3 1 4 hour run?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Rate: 54000 brochures per hour

Formula: D=RT Distance=Rate x Time (In this case distance is the amount)
(I’m not sure if you meant to type 3 1/4 or 314. I’ll include both)
D=54,000(3 1/4)

Two ways

1. 54,000(3 1/4)=175,500

2. 54,000x3 is 162,000, and 1/4 of 54,000 is 54,000/4=13,500. 162,000+13,500=175,500.

(54,000 x 314 = 16,956,000)

Hope this helps!
