Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert minutes to hours, we divide by 60, since there are 60 minutes in an hour.

So 4 hours is equal to 4 * 60 = 240 minutes

Charise can pick 1/3 pound of berries in 15 minutes. This is her unit rate. To find out how many pounds of berries she can pick in 4 hours, we need to multiply this unit rate by the number of 15-minute intervals in 4 hours.

240 minutes / 15 minutes = 16 (four-hour intervals)

So the amount of berries Charise can pick in 4 hours is:

1/3 pound/15 minutes * 240 minutes = (1/3) * 16 = 16/3 = 5.333 pounds of berries.
