Answer:
50 dog walks in 10 hours (1 month)
Step-by-step explanation:
If Darius made 10 dog walks in 2 hours, then in one month, it took Darius 10 hours to make 50 dog walks.
Using the first formula, 2 hours ÷ 1/5 = 10, then
10 hours (in one month) ÷ 1/5 = 50 dog walks.
Hope this helps!
In problem #1, rewrite the problem using the reciprocal (the inverse) of 1/5 to 5/1 and change the division sign to multiplication. Do this for both equations.
Problem 1.) Write 2 ÷ 1/5 = 2 x 5/1 = 10.
Problem 2.) 10 ÷ 1/5 = 10 x 5/1 =50.
Problem 3.) Just explain that in one month, it took Darius 10 hours to walk 50 dog walks using the formula from problem 2 above. Good Luck!
