Question

Adsila and Carlos volunteer to fill gift boxes for soldiers serving overseas.
Both work at a constant rate. They work together for 6 hours and fill 126 boxes,
Adsila fills 9 boxes every hour. How many boxes does Carlos fill every hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 boxes an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

If Adsila made 9 boxes an hour for 6 hours,she made 54 boxes (9*6=54). Take how many she made away from the total (126-54=72). If Carlos made 72 boxes in 6 hours, divide 72 by 6 to get 12 (72/6=12). Carlos made 12 boxes an hour.
