It looks like you've uploaded an image containing a math problem, but the text is not fully visible or readable in your message. However, based on what I can see, it appears to be a
word problem involving rates and time, likely related to children building sandcastles at a beach.
Let me try to reconstruct and solve the problem based on the visible parts:
---
Problem (Reconstructed):
> The Children's Play Area has 10 sandboxes.
> Each child can build one sandcastle in 15 minutes.
> There are 30 children playing.
> How many sandcastles can be built in 30 minutes?
---
Step-by-Step Solution:
We are given:
- Each child builds
1 sandcastle in 15 minutes.
- There are
30 children.
- Time available:
30 minutes.
#### Step 1: Determine how many sandcastles one child can build in 30 minutes.
Since one child builds 1 sandcastle in 15 minutes, in 30 minutes they can build:
$$
\frac{30}{15} = 2 \text{ sandcastles per child}
$$
#### Step 2: Multiply by number of children.
Each of the 30 children can build 2 sandcastles in 30 minutes:
$$
30 \times 2 = 60 \text{ sandcastles}
$$
---
✔ Answer:
$$
\boxed{60} \text{ sandcastles}
$$
---
Explanation:
- The rate per child is 1 sandcastle every 15 minutes → 2 per 30 minutes.
- With 30 children working simultaneously, total output is $30 \times 2 = 60$.
This assumes all children work independently and continuously without interference.
