Question

John studies 41/2hours in the morning and for 32⁄5hours in the evening. How much time does John spend in his studies?

Answer 1

Answer:

26.9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Make both fractions have the same denominator.

This can be done by multiplying the top and bottom of the 41/2 by 5 and the top and bottom of the 32/5 by 2.

BTW the top and bottom is multiplied to ensure the fraction stays of the same value.

This means that he studied 205/10 hours in the morning and 64/10 hours in the evening.

To get the total time you add the two fractions to get 269/10 hours total or 26.9 hours.

P.S don't know how you spend 26.9 hours in one day studying but we'll look past it.

Hope this helps.
