Question

Adele took a total of 12 quizzes over the course of 2 weeks. After attending 5 weeks of school this quarter, how many quizzes will Adele have taken in total? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

?quizzes

Answer 1

30, or 42

Explanation:

If they took 12 quizzes over the course of 2 weeks, then we can assume that they take 6 quizzes each week (12/2 = 6).

Over the course of 5 weeks, they'll have taken 30 quizzes if the above is true. However, the 'or' is there because I don't know if they're including the past 12 or not. If they are including the 12 quizzes taken over 2 weeks, then the answer is 42. If they are only referring to the 5 weeks of school, then the answer is 30.

Answer 2

30 quizzes

Explanation:

12 quizzes in 2 weeks means that there were 6 per week and 6 (quizzes per week) times 5 (number of weeks) would be 30.

Hope this helped!!
