Question

Vito uses 9 liters of water to water 24 flower pots. He is wondering how many liters of water (w)left parenthesis, w, right parenthesis it would take to water 40 flower pots. He assumes he'll use the same amount of water on each pot.

Answer 1

15 liters

Explanation:

[] 9 / 24 = 0.375

-> Vito used 0.375 liters of water on the first 24 flower pots

[] 40 * 0.375 = 15

-> Vito will need liters of water to water the 40 flower pots if he uses the same amount of water
