A crew of highway workers paved 2/15 mile in 20 minutes. If they work at the same rate, what portion of a mile will they pave in one hour?

Verified Answer :

Divide \(\frac{2}{15}\) by 20 to get how many miles the workers paved per minute. Remember that 20 = \(\frac{20}{1}\)

\(\frac{2}{15}\) ÷ \(\frac{20}{1} =\) \(\frac{1}{150}\)

The workers paves \(\frac{1}{150}\) miles per minute

\(\frac{1}{150} * \frac{60}{1} = \frac{60}{150} = \frac{2}{5}\)

The workers paved \(\frac{2}{5}\) miles in 1 hour =)
