Stephen can deliver 14 newspapers in 20 minutes.
It takes 3 hours to deliver 131 papers
Given :
Stephen can deliver 14 newspapers in 20 minutes.
We need to find out how many hours will it take him to deliver 131 papers
First we find number of minutes it take him to deliver 131 papers
Lets make a proportion . Let 'x' be the number of minutes
[tex]\frac{14}{20}=\frac{131}{x} \\[/tex]
Cross multiply it to solve for x
[tex]\frac{14}{20}=\frac{131}{x} \\\\14(x)=131(20)\\14x=2620\\[/tex]
Divide both sides by 14
[tex]x=\frac{1310}{7}[/tex]
x represents the minutes
Now to convert it into hours we divide by 60
[tex]\frac{\left(\frac{1310}{7}\right)}{60}=\frac{131}{42}\\3.11904[/tex]
