Jorge has already eaten 8
cookies; he eats 2 'cookies per minute.
Emmanuel has not eaten any but
starts to eat 4 cookies per minute.
When will they have eaten the same amount?
How many cookies will they each have eaten?

They will have eaten the same amount when 4 minutes passed.

Each one will eat 16 cookies.

Explanation:

Hi to answer this question we have to write an equation for the number of cookies that each one eats:

Where m = minutes

If they eat the same amount:

2 m +8 = 4 m

8= 4m -m

8 = 2m

8/2 = m

4 =m

They will have eaten the same amount when 4 minutes passed.

To know the number of cookies eaten.

Jorge = 2m +8 = 2 (4) +8 =16

Emmanuel = 4 m = 4(4) = 16

Each one will eat 16 cookies.
