Fill in the blanks: Suppose that Jake and Jill have the ability to pick either apples or strawberries. The following table shows how much they can pick in one hour. Quantity Picked in One Hour Pounds of Apples Pounds of Strawberries Jake 8 4 Jill 10 10 If Jake and Jill each has 10 hours available and each person divides the time equally between picking apples and strawberries, then together they can pick pounds of apples and pounds of strawberries. Now if Jake spends all 10 hours picking apples and Jill spends all 10 hours picking strawberries, then together they can pick pounds of apples and pounds of strawberries.
