Question

Arun and Kiran are collecting plastic to send for recycling. Each hour Arun and Kiran collect 1½ and ⅔ buckets of plastic respectively. How many buckets would they collect in one day?

Answer 1

Answer:

52

for arun

he collects = 1.5 buckets per hour

one day = 24 hrs

so total buckets per day = no. of buckts per hour *24

= 1.5 × 24

= 36 buckets

for kiran

he collects = 2/3

total buckets per day = (2÷3) × 24 = 16 buckets

therefore, total buckets = 36 + 16 = 52 buckets
