20baskets into 4minutes

Put this into ratio form:

20 baskets / 4 minutes.

This means for every 4 minutes, you can make 20 baskets.

Now solve for 1 minute ... how many baskets can you make in one minute.

You can solve this in many ways:

1. Cross Multiply:

20/4 = x/1 ... 20*1 = 20 : 4 = 5 baskets per minute

2. Simplify - (simpler way to solve)

20 baskets : 4 minutes = 5 baskets in 1 minute

3. Critical Thinking:

how many times can 4 go into 20? 5 times. So there are:

5 baskets per minute
