In the morning
 (3/4) (strawberries / minutes) * (60/1) (minutes / hours) = 45 (strawberries / hours)
 in the afternoon
 (2/3) (strawberries / minutes) * (60/1) (minutes / hours) = (40 strawberries / hours)
 the difference between your morning and afternoon packing rates, in pints per hour is
 45-40 = 5 (strawberries / hours)

The difference between her morning and afternoon packing rates,in pints per hour is; 5 pints per hour

We are given;

  • Morning rate = 3 pints every 4 minutes

There are 60 minutes in an hour.

Thus;

  • Morning rate = 3 × 60/4 = 45 pints per hour

Afternoon rate = 2 pints every 3 minutes

  • Afternoon rate per hours = 2 × 60/3 = 40 pints per hour.

Thus;

Difference between morning and afternoon rate = 45 - 40 = 5 pints per hour
