On Wednesday the farmers at the Marshall Farm picked 3 1/5 barrels of tomatoes. Thursday, the farmers picked 2 1/10 times as many tomatoes as on Wednesday. How many barrels of tomatoes did the farmers pick on Thursday?

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of barrels on Thursday is the product of the number of barrels on Wednesday and the ratio of barrels Thursday/Wednesday.

... (Wed barrels) × (Thu barrels)/(Wed barrels) = (Thu barrels)

... 9/10 × 5/6 = (9×5)/(10×6) = 45/60

... = (3×15)/(4×15) = 3/4 . . . . barrels picked on Thursday
