The parent volunteers made 120 snow cones in 5 hours. the student council made 100 snow cones in 4 hours. who made more snow cones per hour?

answer with supporting work:

The parent volunteers:
120 snow cones ... 5 hours
x snow cones = ? ... 1 hour

120 * 1 = 5 * x
120 = 5 * x   /5
x = 120 / 5 = 24 snow cones

The student council:
100 snow cones ... 4 hours
y snow cones = ? ... 1 hour

100 * 1 = 4 * y
100 = 4 * y   /4
y = 100 / 4 = 25 snow cones

Result: The student council made more snow cones per hour (25 > 24).
