Question 5 • CCS District-ACT WorkKeys Remediation

A pipe press can produce 360 feet of pipe in 240 minutes. What is the production rate in yards per hour?

Answer
A
30 yards per 3 hours
B
30 yards per hour
C
40 yards per hour
D
40 yards per 3 hours
E
120 yards per hour

Explanation

The press produces 360 feet in 240 minutes, so in 60 minutes it produces 360 × (60 ÷ 240) = 90 feet. Since 3 feet equal 1 yard, 90 feet is 30 yards. The production rate is 30 yards per hour, which is choice B.
