Question

A construction worker is blacktopping a driveway. She blacktops 35 1/2 square yards in 5/6 hour.
How many square yards can she black top in an hour

Answer 1

Answer:

42 3/5 yd²/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the area by the time to find the unit rate:

 (35 1/2 yd²)/(5/6 h) = (71/2)(6/5) yd²/h

 = 213/5 yd²/h = 42.6 yd²/h
