Baker 1 bakes the same number of cookies each hour she works . She baked 1,200 cookies in a 6- hour period of working. Baker 2 bakes 250 cookies each hour. Compare the proportional relationships. Which baker baked fewer cookies per hour

Answer 1

To compare the proportional relationships, we need to consider the amount of cookies each baker bakes in one hour.

Baker 1 bakes a total of 1,200 cookies in 6 hours. To find the number of cookies baked in one hour, we divide the total by the number of hours: 1,200 cookies / 6 hours = 200 cookies/hour.

Baker 2 bakes 250 cookies each hour.

Comparing the two, we can see that Baker 1 baked fewer cookies per hour with a rate of 200 cookies/hour, while Baker 2 baked 250 cookies/hour.
