question 1
if a mechanic has an average repair rate of 2 aircraft repairs in 6 hours. at that rate, how many hours would it take the mechanic to repair 5 aircraft?
hours

Explanation:

Step1: Find the time per repair

The mechanic repairs 2 aircraft in 6 hours, so the time per repair is $\frac{6}{2} = 3$ hours per aircraft.

Step2: Calculate time for 5 repairs

To repair 5 aircraft, we multiply the time per repair by the number of aircraft: $3\times5 = 15$ hours.
