Working at the same constant rate, 2 artisans can produce 10 sets of silverware in an hour. How many sets of silverware could 6 artisans create in 5 hours at the same constant rate?

A. 30
B. 50
C. 60
D. 100
E. 150
2 * r * 1 = 10 sets (work)

Hence rate of each artisan is \(\frac{10}{(2*1)}\) = 5 (sets in one hour)

Six artisans in five hours at that rate will produce 6*5*5 = 150 sets

Answer E

A. 30
B. 50
C. 60
D. 100
E. 150

We are given that the rate of 2 artisans is 10 sets of silverware per hour. We can create the following proportion to determine the rate of 6 artisans:

10/2 = r/6

5 = r/6

30 = r

The rate of the 6 artisans is 30 sets per hour. Thus, those 6 artisans can produce 30 x 5 = 150 sets of silverware in 5 hours.

Answer: E
