Question

The number of bricks laid varies directly with the amount of time spent. If 45 bricks are

laid in 65 minutes, how much time would it take to lay 500 bricks? (Approximate your
answer in whole number)

Answer 1

722

Explanation:

If 45 bricks are laid in 65 minutes

then 1 brick will be laid in
`(65)/(45)` minutes

so, 500 bricks will be laid in
`((65)/(45) )500` minutes
