A processing machine crushes 3 and 1/4 kilograms of dried fruits in 3/4 minute

what is the rate , in kilograms per minute, at which the machine crushes dried fruits?
3/12
16/39
2 and 7/16
4 and 1/3

1 answer

To find the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruits in kilograms per minute, we need to divide the amount of dried fruits crushed by the time taken.

3 and 1/4 kilograms = 13/4 kilograms

Rate = (13/4) / (3/4)
Rate = (13/4) * (4/3)
Rate = 13 / 3
Rate = 4 and 1/3

Therefore, the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruits is 4 and 1/3 kilograms per minute.
