jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in half an hour. if she keeps picking strawberries at the same rate how mamy gallons will she have picked in 2 hours

Respuesta :

You can set it up as a proportion.

3/4 is to 1/2 as X is to 2.

So you have 3/4÷1/2 = x/2

3/4÷1/2 is equal to 3/2. 

You're left with 3/2 = x/2. 

After cross multiplying. You get 2x=6.

Divide both sides by two and x =3. She will have picked 3 gallons.
