A processing machine crushes 3 1/4 kilograms of dried fruit in 3/4 minute what is the rate in kilograms per minute at which the machine crushes dried fruit give your answer in fraction form

Answer 1

To find the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruit in kilograms per minute, we can divide the amount of fruit crushed by the time it took to crush it:

Rate = Amount crushed / Time

Amount crushed = 3 1/4 kilograms = 13/4 kilograms
Time = 3/4 minute

Rate = (13/4) kilograms / (3/4) minute
Rate = (13/4) / (3/4)
Rate = (13/4) * (4/3)
Rate = 13/3

Therefore, the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruit is 13/3 kilograms per minute.
