Question

Kai can wrap 42 gifts in 3 hours. Answer the following questions, assuming that Kai can continue wrapping gifts at that same rate. How many gifts can Kai wrap in 24 hours? _______________ How many hours would it take him to wrap 126 gifts? _______________ How many gifts does Kai wrap per hour? _______________

Answer 1

1. 336

2. 9

3. 14

Explanation:

He wraps 42 gifts/3hours

24 hours is 8 "3 hours"

42 hours per 3 gifts * 8 "3 hours" = 336 gifts

126 gifts is 3 "42 gifts"

3 hours per 42 gifts * 3 "42 gifts" = 9 hours

He wraps 42 gifts/3hours

divide these values by 3 and you get 14 gifts/one hour

14 gifts every one hour
