An ice cream factory makes 170 quarts of ice cream in 5 hours. How many
quarts could be made in 36 hours? What was that rate per day?


Sagot :

The amount of quarts which will be made in 36 hours and the production rate per day is :

  • 1224 quarts on 36 hours
  • 816 quarts in a day

Given the Parameters :

Time taken to make 170 quarts = 36 hours

Number of quarts made in 36 hours using the proportional relationship :

170 = 5

p = 36

Cross multiply :

5p = 170 × 36

5p = 6120

p = 6120 / 5

p = 1224 quarts

The production rate per day :

Number of hours in a day = 24 hours

170 = 5

p = 24

Cross multiply

5p = 170 × 24

5p = 4080

p = 4080/5

p = 816

Therefore, the production rate per day is 816 quarts
