Answer:
36 droplets of water in 6 minutes
Explanation:
If there are 60 seconds in a minute, and one droplet of water falls in the pipe every 10 seconds then you would need to divide.
The first step is to divide 60 by 10. The answer will be 6. This means that six droplets will fall for every minute.
60/10 = 6
This gives us a unit rate to work with.
6:1 or
or 6 droplets per minute
All you have to do is multiply.
(the minutes)
Your answer should be 36 droplets of water have fallen into the pipe in 6 minutes.
Best of Luck!
