today is the harperville fall for fun festival, and naomi is volunteering at the balloon stand. when she practiced last night, naomi made 6 balloon animals in 12 minutes. naomi is signed up for a 60 - minute slot at the balloon stand. if naomi keeps the same rate, how many balloon animals will she make? balloon animals
Answer
# Explanation:
## Step1: Calculate rate per minute
Find the number of balloon - animals made per minute. Rate $r=\frac{\text{Number of balloon animals}}{\text{Time}}$. Given she made 6 balloon animals in 12 minutes, so $r = \frac{6}{12}=0.5$ balloon animals per minute.
## Step2: Calculate number of balloon animals in 60 minutes
Multiply the rate per minute by the total time of 60 minutes. Let $n$ be the number of balloon animals. Then $n=r\times t$, where $r = 0.5$ and $t = 60$. So $n=0.5\times60 = 30$.

30
