A coffee pot makes 6 cups of coffee in 1 1/2 min. How many cups of coffee can the coffee pot make in 1 min? cups Question Resources

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

1 1/2 min = 6 cups divide both sides by 1 1/2

OpenStudy (ryuga):

1/4

OpenStudy (phi):

There are two ways to think about this. One is write a ratios and solve in other words \[ \frac{6 \ cups}{1.5 \ mins}= \frac{x}{1 \min} \] now simplify

OpenStudy (ryuga):

i look at that and my brain exploads

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

@Ryuga you have to divide 1 1/2 on both sides

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

The answer will not be 1/4

OpenStudy (phi):

you should know 6 divided by 1 is 6 and 6 divided by 2 is 3 and so 6 divided by 1.5 is between 3 and 6

OpenStudy (ryuga):

i got 4

@phi

OpenStudy (faiqraees):
