Al can paint 25 tables in 5.5 hours. If he continues to work at the same pace, how many tables can he paint in 9.9 hours?

Answer 1

We can set up a proportion to solve this problem. Let x be the number of tables that Al can paint in 9.9 hours, we have 25/5.5=x/9.9. Cross multiplying, we get 5.5*x=25*9.9. Dividing both sides by 5.5 gives x=(25*9.9)/5.5=45 tables. Answer: \boxed{45}.
