Answer:
Tom eats 3 burgers and 3 portions of fries in 1 hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tom eats a burger in 15 minutes and a portion of fries in 5 minutes.
Total time he spent = 15 + 5 = 20 minutes in eating both
We have to calculate the number of burgers and fries he is able to eat in one hour.
∵ In 20 minutes Tom eats burger and fries = 1
∴ In 1 minutes he would be able to eat = [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex]
∴ In 60 minutes he would be able to eat = [tex]\frac{60}{20}=3[/tex] sets of burgers and fries.
Therefore, Tom eats 3 burgers and 3 portions of fries in 1 hour.
