Question

Joy is making hand-painted ornaments for

her family this year. Yesterday, she made 2
ornaments in 6 hours. This weekend, she
plans to spend a total of 15 hours making
ornaments.
If Joy works at the same rate, how many
ornaments will she make this weekend?

Answer 1

5 Ornaments

Explanation:

First, we take into account that 24 hours are in one day. We then make the equation 6/24, which tells us that she can make 8 ornaments in 24 hours. That's not the answer we need though.

We will divide 2 by 6 = 0.33

We can take that and multiply it by 15 hours to get 5 ornaments total.

Hope this answer helped u out :D

Answer 2

1 ornament per 3 hours

in 15 hours she will have 7.5 of them done
