Mrs. Patel weeds 1/6 of her garden in 5/12 of an hour. If Mrs. Patel continues weeding at the same rate, what fraction of her garden will she weed in one hour?

Respuesta :

Mr. Patel weeds 1/6 of her garden in 5/12 of an hour

5/12 of an hour = 5/12 x 60 =25 minutes

By way of ratio in 1 hour which is equal to 60 mins she will cover

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{\frac{1}{6}}{x}=\frac{25}{60} \\ \\ 25x\text{ = }\frac{1}{6}\times60 \\ 25x=10 \\ x=\frac{10}{25} \\ x=\frac{2}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]
