Question

The number of hot dogs Ryan can eat varies directly with the amount of time he spends eating. If Ryan can eat 14 hot dogs in 6 minutes, how many hot dogs can he eat in 15 minutes?

Answer 1

Ryan can eat about 34.5 hot dogs in 15 minutes

Explanation:

You first need to find how many hot dogs ryan eats in one minute. By doing this you need to do 14 divided by 6 and that will get you to 2.3

Than you need to take that 2.3 and muliply it by the 15 minutes and than that would get you to your answer of 34.5 hotdogs in 15 minutes

I hope this helped!

Answer 2

35

Explanation:

If I am not correct I'm sorry.

If Ryan can eat 14 hot dogs in 6 min then he should be able to eat about 35 hot dogs in 15 mins.

14/6= 2.333...

so 2.333... x 15 would equal 35
