Given :

  • Dave is hanging dry wall in a house with square rooms.
  • He completes on average 2/ 3 of a wall in 1/2 of an hour.

The following steps can be used in order to determine Dave's rate of completion:

Step 1 - The concept of unit rate can be used in order to determine Dave's rate of completion.

Step 2 - According to the given data, Dave completes on average 2/3 of a wall in 1/2 of an hour.

Step 3 - Now, let Dave's rate of completion be 'x'.

Step 4 - So, the value of 'x' can be calculated as:

[tex]x = \dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}}{\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]

Step 5 - Simplify the above expression.

[tex]x = \dfrac{2}{3}\times\dfrac{2}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{4}{3}\;walls \;per \;hour[/tex]

Therefore, Dave's rate of completion is 4/3 walls per hour.
