Answer:

Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets convert 2 1/2 hours in mixed fraction form for better calculation

2 1/2 hours = (2*2 + 1)/2 = 5/2 hours

no of plants pot in  5/2 hours = 15

to find no. of plants pot in 1 hours lets

divide both side by 5/2

no of plants pot in  5/2/(5/2)  hours = 15/(5/2) = 15*2/5 = 6

no. of plants pot in 1 hour = 6

Thus, Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.
