I have a simple question i need help with

Jean has an ice cream machine. In 6 hours her ice cream machine makes 4 liters of ice cream. How much ice cream can she make in a whole day?

Respuesta :

24 hours in a day.   Can make 4 liters in 6 hours.   So can make 16 liters in a day.


First of all, a whole day has 24 hours. So you need to compare
6 hours= 4 liters
24 hours= Y
Y represents the unknown
Cross and multiply. That will be
6 x Y=24 x 4
6Y=96
Divide both sides by 6
Y=96/6
Y=16
A whole day will be 16 liters. Hope I helped. Goodluck
