Question

A copy machine makes 32 copies per minute. How long does it take to make 176 copies?

Answer 1

Answer: 5.5 minutes (or 5 and a half minutes)

Explanation:

We're making 176 copies in total: 32 per minute. By dividing 176 with 32, we'll find out how many times we have to make 32 copies, or, how many minutes the copying will take.

176 / 32 = 5.5

Answer: 5.5 minutes (or 5 and a half minutes)
