Question

Elmer looked at 2 sites in 5 minutes.At the rate how many sites would he look at in 6 hours?

Answer 1

We have the following:

The first thing is to pass the time from hours to minutes, knowing that 1 hour equals 60 minutes

`6h\cdot(60\min)/(1h)=360\min`

Now, we know that you can see 2 sites in 5 minutes, we calculate the number of sites like this

`360\min \cdot\frac{2\text{sites}}{5\min }=144\text{sites}`

Therefore, in 6 hours you will see a total of 144 sites
