Answer: The required number of plants Nestor can [lot in 1 hour is 6.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that Nestor works at a garden where he pots plants. It takes him [tex]2\dfrac{1}{2}~\textup{hour}[/tex] to pot 15 plants.
We are to find the number of plants he can plot in 1 hour.
We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the problem.
We have
Number of plants Nestor can plot in [tex]2\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex] hour = 15.
So, the number of plants he can plot in 1 hour will be
[tex]\dfrac{15}{\frac{5}{2}}=15\times\dfrac{2}{5}=6.[/tex]
Thus, the required number of plants Nestor can [lot in 1 hour is 6.
