Question

1. the world record for the most number of speed skips in 60 seconds is 332 skips. if the record holder skipped at a constant ratio of seconds to skips, how many skips did she make in 15 seconds?

Explanation:

Step1: Find skips per second

The record is 332 skips in 60 seconds. So skips per second is $\frac{332}{60}$.

Step2: Calculate skips in 15 seconds

Multiply skips per second by 15: $\frac{332}{60} \times 15$. Simplify: $\frac{332 \times 15}{60} = \frac{332}{4} = 83$.

Answer:

83
