Question

It took Jose tow-thrids of an hour to complete his math homework on Monday, three-fourths of an hour on Tuesday, and tow-fifths of an hour on Wednesday. How many hours did it take Jose to complete his homework altogether?

Answer 1

Answer:

${\green{\text{2/3 of an hour -How much time Jose spend on homework on Monday}}}$

${\orange{\text{3/4 of an hour -How much time Jose spend on homework on Tuesday}}}$

${\pink{\text{2/5 of an hour -How much time Jose spend on homework on Wednesday}}}$

(2/3)+(3/4)+(2/5)=(2/3)*(20/20)+(3/4)*(15/15)+(2/5)*(12/12)=(40+45+24)/60=109/60(hours) or 109 minutes
