Question

A gear rotates 60 times every 25 min. How many times will it rotate in 10 min?

Answers

GPT 3.5
To determine the number of rotations in 10 minutes, we need to find the ratio of rotations to time in the given situation.

The gear rotates 60 times every 25 minutes.

So, the gear rotates $\frac{60}{25}$ times every minute.

Now, we need to find the number of rotations in 10 minutes.

Number of rotations in 10 minutes = $\frac{60}{25} \times 10$

Simplifying, we have:

Number of rotations in 10 minutes = $2 \times 10 = \boxed{20}$

Therefore, the gear will rotate 20 times in 10 minutes.
