Patty lives on a chicken farm and can collect 80 eggs in 2 hours. At that rate how long will it take her to collect 360 eggs? I'm confused, how do you solve this...

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to calculate how many eggs she can collect in an hour. All we have to do to do this is divide 80 by 2, as if she can collect 80 in 2 hours, in one hour, half of the time, she can collect have of the eggs. This means that she can collect 40 eggs in one hour.

Now all we have to do is divide how many eggs she wants to collect by how many she can collect per hour, which will give how many hours it will take. In this case 360/40=9, so it will take her 9 hours.

i would need to see the dot plot : )

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
