Answer 1

Answer:

m = 50w

Step-by-step explanation:

m = amount of minerals

w = number of workers

900 minerals are needed to create 18 workers (Given)

Find the amount of minerals needed to create 1 worker:

18 workers = 900 minerals

1 worker = 900 ÷ 18

1 worker = 50 minerals

Find the amount of minerals needed to create w worker:

1 worker = 50 minerals

w workers = 50w minerals

Amount of minerals needed to create w worker is 50w

Answer: m = 50w
