Asked by Anna

Rashid picks 420 strawberries in 5/6 hour. Write and solve an equation to find how many strawberries can she pick in the space of an hour?

I'm not good with word problems, and am completely lost. I can do everything except the equation (I think). Please help!

just use a simple ratio

x/420 = 1/(5/6) = 6/5
cross-multiply
5x = 2520
x = 504
