Answer:
Alex collected 359 golf balls each hour and 4 balls were remaining as remainder.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total golf balls collected =2876
Number of hours = 8 hours.
We need to find the number of golf balls collected in per hour.
And what is the remainder.
Solution:
In 8 hours = 2876 balls collected
1 hour = Number of golf balls collected in 1 hour.
Using Unitary method we get;
Number of golf balls collected in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{2876}{8}=359.5[/tex]
But given she collects equal number of golf balls in each hour and golf balls cannot be in decimal number.
so we can say that;
Alex collected 359 golf balls each hour and 4 balls were remaining as remainder.
