Problem

Hall wrapped 36 presents in 2 hours. At that rate, how many presents would he wrap in 10 minutes?

Solution

Step 1 :\(\text{Rate} = \frac{36 \text{ presents}}{2 \text{ hours}} = 18 \text{ presents/hour} \)

Step 2 :\(\text{Rate} = \frac{18 \text{ presents/hour}}{60 \text{ minutes/hour}} = 0.3 \text{ presents/minute} \)

Step 3 :\(\text{Presents in 10 minutes} = 0.3 \text{ presents/minute} \times 10 \text{ minutes} = 3 \text{ presents} \)
