Question

 If bus conductor issues 60 tickets in 20 minute how many tickets can he be able to issues in 10 hrs.?

Answer 1

20 minutes is 1/3 hours.

60 tickets are issued in 1/3 hours

Let x tickets be issued in 10 hours

cross multiply , so x= 60x10/1/3 = 1800 tickets

Answer 2

Convert hours to minutes:

10 hours = 10 x 60 = 600 mins

.

Find number of tickets in 1 min:

20 min = 60 tickets

1 min = 60 ÷ 20 = 3 tickets

.

Find number of tickets in 600 mins:

1 min = 3 tickets

600 min = 3 x 600 = 1800 tickets

.

Answer: The bus conductor can issue 1800 tickets in 10 hours
