Example Question #3 : Solve Unit Rate Problems: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Rp.A.3b

At a local market, farmers trade produce to obtain a more diverse crop. A farmer will trade turnips for ears of corn. If a man has ears of corn, then how many turnips can he get?

Possible Answers:

$62\ \text{turnips}$

$12\ \text{turnips}$

$26\ \text{turnips}$

$24\ \text{turnips}$

$21\ \text{turnips}$

Correct answer:

$26\ \text{turnips}$

Explanation:

Ratios can be written in the following format:

$A:B\rightarrow \frac{A}{B}$

Using this format, substitute the given information to create a ratio.

$3\ \text{corn}: 13\ \text{turnips}$

Rewrite the ratio as a fraction.

$3\ \text{corn}: 13\ \text{turnips}\rightarrow \frac{3\ \text{corn}}{13\ \text{turnips}}$

We know that the farmer has ears of corn. Create a ratio with the variable that represents how many turnips he can get.

$\frac{6\ \text{corn}}{T}$

Create a proportion using the two ratios.

$\frac{3\ \text{corn}}{13\ \text{turnips}}=\frac{6\ \text{corn}}{T}$

Cross multiply and solve for .

$6\ \text{corn}\times 13\ \text{turnips}=3\ \text{corn}\times T$

Simplify.

3T=78

Divide both sides of the equation by .

$\frac{3T}{3}=\frac{78}{3}$

Solve.

T=26

The farmer can get $26\ \text{turnips}$ .
