Question

Each floor in a hotel has the same # of rooms. A member of the housekeeping staff cleaning every room on 3 floors cleaned 24 rooms A : What is the unit rate in the form of rooms per floor? B: Use this unit rate to find how many rooms are in the hotel if there are 25 floors in all. show work

Answer 1

A. The units will be in rooms/floor
To find out this number, we take the number of rooms on 3 floors, then divide it by the # of floors (3), which will give us the number of floors per room:
24 rooms/3 floors = 8 rooms/floor (Units are important)

B. We multiply our unit rate of room/floor by the number of floors. This makes since because when we go:
25 floors * (8 rooms/floor), there's a floor in the numerator and denominator, which means they cancel, giving us the total number of rooms.
25 * 8 = 200.
