Question

Lalit reads a book for 1 3/4 hours every day and reads the entire book in 6 days. How many hours does he take to read the entire book?

Please also mention - why did we multiply or divide in this sentence?

Answer 1

Answer:

10.5 hours=10 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of hours read by him= 1 3/4 hours= 7/4 hours=105 minutes

No. of days taken by him to read the book= 6 days

:.Hours taken by him to read the entire book= 105*6 (Here we will multiply the minutes by the no. of days as we have to get the value of the entire book and we have been given the time for only one day. If he reads the book in total 6 days then we will multiply and will get the answer. I hope you are understanding what I am trying to say✌)

So, 105*6=630 minutes=630/60=10.5 hours
