Answer: They can form 400 pretzels in 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
First, we have to calculate the number of pretzels made in 9 minutes:
1 dozen: 12 pretzels
5 dozen = 5 x 12 = 60 pretzels
Next, we have to divide the number of pretzels made (60) by the time spent (9 minutes)
60/9 = 20/3 pretzels per minute
Finally, we simply multiply the number of pretzels made per minute by the number of minutes asked.
1 hour= 60 minutes
20/3 x 60 = 400 pretzels
They can form 400 pretzels in 1 hour
