Question

Joe worked 6 hours and packed 18 cartons. Bob worked 10 hours and packed 30 cartons. Did Joe and Bob work at the same rate? NO, Joe and Bob did not work at the same rate YES, Joe and Bob worked at the same rate

Answer 1

First, we have to find the rate of each of them.

We have to divide each.

`\begin{gathered} J=(18)/(6)=3 \\ B=(30)/(10)=3 \end{gathered}`

As you can observe, both packed 3 cartons per hour.

Therefore, the answer is: YES, Joe and Bob worked at the same rate​.
