Question

Kaylee has already prepared 3 kilograms of dough and will continue preparing 8 kilograms of dough every hour. How many hours did Kaylee work if she prepared 35 kilograms of dough?

Answer 1

4 hours

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you need to write down the equation. The equation is 3 +8x=35. In this equation, x represents the number of hours. The coefficient is 8, and that represents the number of kilograms per hour. You subtract 3 from both sides to get 32. Next, we solve for x. Divide both sides by 8 to get x=4 hours.
