At Priscilla's Purse Warehouse, it takes 2 over 3 of a day to complete 1 over 9 of an order of purses. At this rate, how long will it take to complete the entire order of purses?
2/3 of a day = 1 purse
2/3 ×9 = or 2×9/ 3 =
= 18/3 = 18÷3 = 6
It will take 6 days to complete the entire order of purses
Answer: 6 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: At Priscilla's Purse Warehouse,
It takes \(\frac{2}{3}\) of a day to complete \(\frac{1}{9}\) of an order of purses.
Thus, the number of days to complete \(\frac{1}{9}\) of an order of purses= \(\frac{2}{3}\)
∴ the number of days to complete 1 order of purses= \(\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{9}{1}=6\)
Hence, the number of days to complete the entire order of purses= 6 days
