simply divide 84 by 24

[tex] \frac{84}{24} = \frac{21}{6} = 3 \frac{3}{6} = 3 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

[tex]3 \frac{1}{2} \: minutes[/tex]

Use the ratio:

24 copies 84 copies
—————- = ——————
1 minute x

On the top, you multiplied 24 by 3.5 to get to 84. Therefore, you must do the same on the bottom (denominators).

1 minute x 3,5

1 x 3.5 = 3.5

So, it takes 3.5 minutes to make 84 copies.
