You can put this solution on YOUR website! if 3 students can fill 4 baskets in 12 minutes, how many baskets can 4 students fill in 18 minutes?
--------------------
3 student DATA:
# = 4 baskets ; Time = 12 minutes ; Rate = 4/12 = 1/3 basket per min
---------
Dividing by 3 you get:
1 student rate: 1 student = (1/3)[1/3] = 1/9 basket per min.
4 students rate= 4(1/9) basket per min
4 students in 18 minutes = 18 * [4(1/9)] = 8 baskets
------------------
Cheers,
Stan H.
