Problema Solution

Jonathon fills 1/5 of a toffee box in 1/30

​ of a minute. How much time will he take to fill a full box?

Answer provided by our tutors

The average rate of Jonathon is:

V = (1/5)/(1/30) box/min

V = 6 box/min

Let 't' represent the time needed to full out 1 box.

V = 1/t

t = 1/V

t = 1/6 min

t = 60*(1/6) sec

t = 10 sec

Jonathon needs 10 seconds to fill a full box.
