Question

A contestant has to eat 45 hot dogs in 9 minutes to beat the record for hot dog eating. How much time does the contestant have to eat each hot dog if the contestant takes the full 9 minutes?

Answer 1

5

Explanation:

If the contestant has 9 minutes for 45 hotdogs, then you would have to divide 45 by 9 to get the answer. 45 divided by 9 is 5.

Then, to see if your answer makes sense, you would multiply 9 by 5 to see if you get 45, which you do.
