Clare bought 6 souvenirs during 2 days of vacation. How many days will Clare have to spend on vacation before she will have bought a total of 15 souvenirs? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

days



Answer :

Answer:

5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N be number of souvenirs bought and D be number of days of vacation.

N is directly proportional to D

N = kD, where k is constant of proportionality.

k = N/D = 6/2 = 3

N = 3D

when N = 15

15 = 3D

Divide both sides by 3

D = 15/3 = 5

Therefore, number of days Clare will have to spend is 5 days
