Katy picked 135 berries in 15 minutes. If she keeps at this rate how many will she have picked in 25 minutes?
135/15 = x/25
Cross multiply and solve for x.
its 54 min
Don't pay attention to wat i just said
To find the number of berries Katy will have picked in 25 minutes, we can use the concept of rates.
First, let's find the rate at which Katy picks berries. We know that she picked 135 berries in 15 minutes. We can calculate her rate by dividing the number of berries by the time taken:
Rate = Number of berries / Time taken
Rate = 135 berries / 15 minutes
Rate = 9 berries per minute
Now that we know Katy's picking rate is 9 berries per minute, we can calculate how many berries she will pick in 25 minutes using the same rate:
Number of berries picked in 25 minutes = Rate * Time taken
Number of berries picked in 25 minutes = 9 berries per minute * 25 minutes
Number of berries picked in 25 minutes = 225 berries
Therefore, if Katy keeps picking berries at the same rate, she will have picked 225 berries in 25 minutes.
