10. Which equation could be used to solve the problem? Joan picked 4 bushels of apples in one hour. At that rate, how many bushels would she pick in 8 hours (b)? * A. b = 8 + 4 B. b = 8 • 4 C. b = 4 ÷ 8 D. b = 8 ÷ 4
The answer would be B. b = 8 * 4. If Joan picked 4 bushels of apples in an hour and the question wants to know how many bushels could be picked in 8 hours, its basically asking how many bushels are in 8 groups of 4.
