Woah picking apples seems like a fun job…very fun…anyway…
So this person picks 250 apples in 1 hour and works 5 hours a day. Do 250 times 5 because he will be picking apples for 5 hours a day. 250x5=1,250 apples. This person picks 1,250 apples a day. So the question asks how many apples can be picked in two weeks if this person picks apples everyday. We all know there are 7 days a week, so if it’s 2 weeks, then 7x2=14 days in 2 weeks. Now we take that 1,250 (number of apples this person picks a day) and times it by 14 (days this person will be picking apples). 1,250x14=17,500 apples. 17,500 apples can be picked in 2 weeks.
