I need an answer quick.
George found that he blinked 85 times in 15 mins. At this rate, how many seconds passed during 51 blinks?

Asked by Hallebear

Answer (3)

if 85 blinks = 15 minutes then 51 blinks = x (cross multiply) 85 × x = 51 × 15 85x / 85 = (51 x 15) / 85 x = (51 × 3) / 17 x = 3 × 3 x = 9 so he blinked 51 times in 9 minutes if 1 minute = 60 seconds then 9 minutes = x (cross multiple) 1 × x = 9 × 60 x = 540 therefore 540 seconds passed when he blinked 51 times

George blinked 51 times in approximately 540 seconds, calculated by determining the rate of blinking from 85 blinks in 15 minutes. This method involved converting minutes to seconds and then finding the time per blink. Ultimately, multiplying the time per blink by 51 gave the total time in seconds.
