Question

Meagan knits 1/10 of q scarf in 3/4 of annhour.What fraction of a scaf can megan knit in 1 hour

Answer 1

2/15

Explanation:

To solve this problem we just need to use a rule of three, relating the fraction of the scarf knitted and the amount of time.

So we have that:

1/10 of the scarf -> 3/4 hour

x of the scarf -> 1 hour

x * (3/4) = 1/10

x = (1/10) / (3/4)

x = (1/10) * (4/3)

x = 4/30 = 2/15

In one hour, Meagan knit 2/15 of the scarf.
