In order to find out how many bushels of oranges the workers would pick in 7 hours, we can set up a proportion:
5 hours / 150 bushels = 7 hours / x bushels
Cross-multiplying, we get:
5x = 7 * 150
5x = 1050
Dividing both sides by 5:
x = 210
Therefore, the workers would pick 210 bushels of oranges in 7 hours.
