Two combines are able to harvest 320 acres of crops in a certain amount of time. How many acres will (a)3, (b)4, (c)6 and (d)7 combines harvest if they work at the same rate for this amount of time?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 480 acres

b)640 acres

c)960 acres

d)1120 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Two combines are able to harvest acres of crops = 320

1 is able to harvest acres of crop = [tex]\frac{320}{2} = 160[/tex]

Three combines are able to harvest acres of crops = [tex]160 \times 3[/tex]

                                                                                    = [tex]480[/tex]

Four combines are able to harvest acres of crops = [tex]160 \times 4[/tex]

                                                                                    = [tex]640[/tex]

Six combines are able to harvest acres of crops = [tex]160 \times 6[/tex]

                                                                                    = [tex]960[/tex]

Seven combines are able to harvest acres of crops = [tex]160 \times 7[/tex]

                                                                                    = [tex]1120[/tex]
