Question

Factory produces 6 motorcycles in 9 hours determine how many hours it takes to produce 16 motorcycles at this rate

Answer 1

Since 16 is 2 and 2/3 greater than 6, then you multiply 2 and 2/3 by 9 and you get 24 hours.

Answer 2

6/9=16/x
multiply both sides by x

6x/9=16
multil yboth sides y 9
6x=144
divide by 6
x=24
answer is 24 hours
