A machine produces 75 widgets an hour. How many widgets does it produce in 6 minutes


Sagot :

75/60 is 1.25 and 1.25 times 6 is 7.5 but you can't produce a half widget so it is just 7

we know that

A machine produces [tex] 75 [/tex] widgets an hour

How many widgets does it produce in [tex] 6 [/tex] minutes?

one hour is equal to ------> [tex] 60\ minutes [/tex]


by proportion

[tex] \frac{75}{60} =\frac{x}{6} \\\\ 60*x= 75*6\\\\ x=\frac{75*6}{60} [/tex]

[tex] x=7.5\ widgets [/tex]

therefore

the answer is

A machine produces [tex] 7\ widgets [/tex] in [tex] 6 [/tex] minutes
