Question

My question says "A store sold 16 sleds in five days. At this rate, how many days will it take them to sell 96 sleds?

Answer 1

30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The store sold 16 sleds in five days, so the rate at which they sell is;

`r=(16)/(5)\text{ sled/day}`

The number of days it will take them to sell 96 sleds is 96 divided by the rate;

`\begin{gathered} n=(96)/(r) \\ n=(96)/(((16)/(5))) \\ n=(96)/(16)*5 \\ n=30 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, it will take 30 days to sell 96 sleds.
