The parent volunteers made 120 snow cones in 5 hours. The student council made 100 snow cones in 4 hours. Who made more snow cones per hour?

Answer with supporting work:

The parent volunteers:

120 snow cones ... 5 hours

x snow cones = ? ... 1 hour

120 * 1 = 5 * x

120 = 5 * x / 5

x = 120 / 5 = 24 snow cones

The student council:

100 snow cones ... 4 hours

y snow cones = ? ... 1 hour

100 * 1 = 4 * y

100 = 4 * y / 4

y = 100 / 4 = 25 snow cones

Result: The student council made more snow cones per hour (25 > 24).
