Question

A dishwasher cleans 1350 dishes in 1 hour . How many dishes will it wash in 16 more minutes.....please explain the method

Answer 1

1 hour = 60 minutes

The dishwasher operates at a rate of 1350 dishes per hour, which reduces to 1350/60 = 22.5 dishes per minute.

So in 16 minutes, it can clean (16 minutes)*(22.5 dishes/minute) = 360 dishes.
