Question

At a farm, four employees harvest 48 pounds of food over a certain number of hours. Each employee works the number of hours shown: Employee A: 6 hours Employee B: 4 hours Employee C: 6 hours Employee D: 8 hours The number of pounds of food harvested by each employee is proportional to the number of hours worked. Fill in the table with the amount of food, in pounds, each employee harvested. Employee A B С D Pounds of Food Harvested​

Answer 1

Employee A- 6 x 2 = 12

Employee B- 4 x 2 = 8

Employee C- 6 x 2 = 12

Employee D- 8 x 2 = 16

Explanation:

if we add a the hours it adds to 24 hours. Since it's proportional

48/24=2

so every hour of work is 2 pounds harvested so,

Employee A- 6 x 2 = 12

Employee B- 4 x 2 = 8

Employee C- 6 x 2 = 12

Employee D- 8 x 2 = 16
