Answer 1

To find out how many points Jordan will have scored after collecting a total of 5 coins, we first need to determine the points per coin Jordan earns.

Jordan scored 180 points by collecting 3 coins. To find the unit rate (points per coin), we can calculate it as follows:

\[ \text{Points per coin} = \frac{180 \text{ points}}{3 \text{ coins}} = 60 \text{ points per coin} \]

Now that we know Jordan earns 60 points for each coin collected, we can calculate how many points he would earn for collecting 5 coins:

\[ \text{Points for 5 coins} = 5 \text{ coins} \times 60 \text{ points per coin} = 300 \text{ points} \]

Thus, after collecting a total of 5 coins, Jordan will have scored 300 points in all.
