Question

A factory produces 6 motorcycles in 9 hours. How many hours will it take to produce 16 motorcycles at this rate ?

Answer 1

Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent motorcycles and h represent hours it takes to make the motorcycles

$6m=9h$

$12m = 18h$

$9 \div6=1.5$

$1m = 1.5h$

$1.5 +1.5+1.5+1.5=$

$1.5+1.5=3.0$

$3.0+3.0=6.0$

$=6$

$18+6=24$

$=24h$

Therefore it takes "24 hours" to create 16 motorcycles.

Hope this helps.
