Answer 2

5
`(5)/(6) minutes` = 5.83 minutes

or

5 minutes 50 seconds

Explanation:

Given: You have been cleaning diesel dispensers for 35 minutes. You have completed 6 dispensers.

Here we need to find the unit rate.

Here the unit rate represents time taken to clean 1 diesel dispensers.

Unit rate =
`(time)/(The number of diesel dispensers)`

=
`(35)/(6)`

= 5
`(5)/(6) minutes`

Now we can convert
`(5)/(6)`minutes to seconds

1 minute = 60 seconds

`(5)/(6) minute = (5)/(6) *60`

= 5*10 seconds

= 50 seconds

Therefore, to clean 1 diesel dispenser you need 5 minutes 50 seconds.
