Answer 1

mrs.bells daughter has 3.5 baskets of towels that need to be folded.if she gets 1.5 baskets folded per hour,how many hours will it take her daughter to fold all of the towels​

we know that

The unit rate is 1.5 baskets per hour

To find out the number of hours , divide the total baskets by the unit rate

so

3.5/1.5=2.33 hours

2.33 hours=2 1/3 hours or 2 hours 20 minutes

therefore

the answer is

2 1/3 hours or 2 hours 20 minutes
