Answer:

1.6 or 1(rounded to the nearest whole)

Explanation:

Benjamin can string popcorn at a rate of 24:15 where 24 is the amount of popcorn kernels and 15 is the number of minutes. To find the rate of one minute we can divide 15 by both sides to get the rate.


24/15:15/15


1.6:1

As you can see by divided it you can get one minute, so 1.6 popcorn kernel, if you wanted to round it would be 1 popcorn kernel.
