To find the speed of the copy machine, we can divide the number of pages copied (3) by the time it took (1/10 of a minute).

3 pages / (1/10 minute) = 3 pages * (10/1 minute) = 30 pages/minute.

Therefore, the speed of the copy machine is 30 pages per minute.

To find the rate at which water flows through the hose, we can divide the amount of water filled (4 gallons) by the time it took (1/6 of a minute).

4 gallons / (1/6 minute) = 4 gallons * (6/1 minute) = 24 gallons/minute.

Therefore, the rate at which water flows through the hose is 24 gallons per minute.

To find the speed of sound, we can divide the distance traveled (1 mile) by the time it took (1/12 of a minute).

1 mile / (1/12 minute) = 1 mile * (12/1 minute) = 12 miles/minute.

Therefore, the approximate speed of sound is 12 miles per minute.

To find out how many scores the teacher's assistant can enter in 1 hour, we can multiply the number of scores entered (10) by the number of times the fraction 1/5 fits into one hour (which is 5).

10 * 5 = 50.

Therefore, the teacher's assistant can enter 50 scores in 1 hour.

To find the rate at which the Quinn family drinks milk, we can divide the amount of milk used (1/2 gallon) by the number of days it takes to consume that amount (3 days).

1/2 gallon / 3 days = 1/2 gallon * (1/3 days) = 1/6 gallon per day.

Therefore, the Quinn family drinks milk at a rate of 1/6 gallon per day.

To find how much baking powder the Perry family would need if they used 1 teaspoon of salt, we can set up a proportion using the ratio of baking powder to salt.

2 teaspoons of baking powder : 1/3 teaspoon of salt = x teaspoons of baking powder : 1 teaspoon of salt.

Cross-multiplying gives us:

(2 teaspoons of baking powder) * (1 teaspoon of salt) = (x teaspoons of baking powder) * (1/3 teaspoon of salt).

2 teaspoons * 1 teaspoon = x teaspoons * (1/3 teaspoon).

2 = x/3.

Multiplying both sides by 3, we get:

6 = x.

The Perry family would need 6 teaspoons of baking powder if they used 1 teaspoon of salt.

To find the speed of the motorcycle, we can divide the distance traveled (10 meters) by the time it took (1/3 of a second).

10 meters / (1/3 second) = 10 meters * (3/1 second) = 30 meters/second.

Therefore, the motorcycle was moving at a speed of 30 meters per second.

To find out how much peanut butter Mrs. Hancock should use when making a huge batch with 1 cup of oil, we can set up a ratio using the given information.

1 cup of peanut butter : 1/2 cup of oil = x cups of peanut butter : 1 cup of oil.

Cross-multiplying gives us:

(1 cup of peanut butter) * (1 cup of oil) = (x cups of peanut butter) * (1/2 cup of oil).

1 cup * 1 cup = x cups * (1/2 cup).

1 = x/2.

Multiplying both sides by 2, we get:

2 = x.

Therefore, Mrs. Hancock should use 2 cups of peanut butter when making the huge batch with 1 cup of oil.

To find out how fast a top swimmer can go, we need to divide the distance swum (25 meters) by the time taken (1/5 of a minute).

25 meters / (1/5 minute) = 25 meters * (5/1 minute) = 125 meters/minute.

Therefore, a top swimmer can go approximately 125 meters per minute.

To find out how much window cleaner Sparkle Cleaners uses in 1 week, we can divide the amount used in 3 weeks (2/3 of a jug) by 3.

(2/3 of a jug) / 3 = 2/3 of a jug * (1/3) = 2/9 of a jug.

Therefore, Sparkle Cleaners uses 2/9 of a jug of window cleaner in 1 week.

To find out how much the oven will heat up in 1 minute, we can multiply the rate of temperature increase (3 degrees) by the number of times the fraction 1/6 fits into 1 minute (which is 6).

3 degrees * 6 = 18 degrees.

Therefore, the oven will heat up by 18 degrees in 1 minute.
