The bakers at healthy bakery can make 200 bagels in 10 hours. How many bagels can they bake in 15 hours?

Answer 1

Set up two fractions with the number of bagels on the top and the hours on the bottom: 200/10 = x/15.

Now you cross multiply: 200 x 15 = 10x

3000 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10

x = 300. They can bake 300 bagels in 15 hours.
