Question

A doctor did a study that said if you eat 2 pounds of turkey you will nap for 90 minutes. You ate 3.5 pounds of turkey. How long will you nap?

Answer 1

Answer:

157.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2 lbs                3.5 lbs

---------------  = ----------------

90 minutes       x minutes

Using cross products

2x = 3.5 * 90

2x =315

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 315/2

x =157.5 minutes

or 2 hours and 37.5 minutes

Answer 2

Answer:157.5 hrs of sleep

Step-by-step explanation:

90+45=135

45 decided by 2 = 22.5

135+22.5=157.5
