You have been cleaning diesel dispensers for 35 minutes. You have completed 6 dispensers. How many minutes has it taken you to clean 1 dispenser?*


Sagot :

If it takes you 35 minutes to clean 6 dispensers, you can divide 35 by 6 to determine the length of time it takes to clean 1. 

35 / 6 = 5.8333.
 
It takes approximately 5.83 minutes to clean one dispenser. 

Answer: [tex]5\dfrac{5}{6}\text{minutes}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of dispensers have been cleaned = 6

Time taken to clean the 6 dispensers = 35 minutes

Then , to find  the time taken to clean 1 dispenser we need to divide the total  number of minutes by the total number of dispensers which have cleaned .

i.e. the number of minutes it takes to clean 1 dispenser =[tex]\dfrac{35}{6}[/tex]

⇒ The number of minutes it takes to clean 1 dispenser =[tex]5\dfrac{5}{6}\text{minutes}[/tex]
