To find the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruits, we can divide the amount of fruit crushed by the time taken.
Amount of fruit crushed: 3 1/4 kilograms = 13/4 kilograms
Time taken: 3/4 minutes
Rate = Amount of fruit crushed / Time taken
Rate = (13/4) / (3/4)
Rate = (13/4) * (4/3)
Rate = 13/3
Therefore, the rate at which the machine crushes dried fruits is 4 1/3 kilograms per minute.
a processing machine crushes 3 and 1 over 4 kilograms of dried fruit in 3 over 4 minutes
what is the rate, in kilograms per minute, at which the machine crushes dried fruits?
