Question

A scanner scanned 72 photos in 8 minutes. If it scans photos at a constant rate, it can scan ____ photos in 23 minutes.

What do I put in the blank?

Answer 1

207

Explanation:

ok so 72 photos in 8 minutes

So the easiest way would be to find how many photos are made per minute.

To do that you would divide 72 by 8 to get 9.

You need how many photos are made in 23 minutes.

To get that you times 23 by 9 to get 207.

207 photos are made in 23 minutes.
