Answer:
14880 calories /24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
one of the fraction has hours the others day so you have to convert to make them the same 1day =24 hours
[tex]\frac{1550 calories}{2.5 hours} =\frac{? calories }{24 hours}[/tex]
you have two fractions that are equal so you can cross multiply
24*1550 = ? * 2.5 ; divide both sides by 2.5
37200/2.5 = ?
? = 14880 calories
the equivalent rate is :
[tex]\frac{1550 calories}{2.5 hours} = \frac{14880 calories}{24 hours}[/tex]
