Question

Answer 1

Since the relationship is directly proportional,

Abigail prepared 15 kilograms of dough after working 3 hours.

Let us calculate the number of dough he prepared in 1 hour,

`\frac{15kg}{3\text{hours}}=\frac{5kg}{\text{hour}}`

Therefore, she prepares 5kg of dough in one hour.

Hence, the amount of dough she will prepare in 4hours will be

`(5kg)/(hr)*4hrs=20kg`

Therefore, Abigail will prepare 20kg of dough in 4 hours.
