    If you would like to know what is the rate you are laying cement in bags per hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:

    20 minutes ... 1/4 of the bag

    1 hour = 60 minutes ... x = ?

    20 * x = 1/4 * 60

    20 * x = 15 / 20

    x = 15/20

    x = 3/4 of the bag

    Result: After 1 hour ( = 60 minutes) of laying down the cement, you will use 3/4 of the bag.

    If you would like to know what is the unit rate, you can calculate this using the following steps:

    20 minutes ... 1/4 of the bag

    x minutes = ? ... 1 bag

    20 * 1 = x * 1/4 / * 4

    20 * 4 = x

    x = 80 minutes

    Result: After 80 minutes, you will use 1 bag.

    3/4 of a bag per hour.

    1 hour is equal to 60 minutes

    1/4 of a bag is equal to 20 minutes

    20 minutes times 3 is equal to 60 minutes.

    1/4 times 3 is equal to 3/4.
