Answer 1

Your Answer:

Given:-

• $\tt Lipika \:reads\: a\: book\: for \:1\frac{3}{4}\:hours \:everyday$

To Find:-

• How many hours in all were required by her to read the book.

Solution:-

$\tt In \:one \:day=1\frac{3}{4}\:hours =\frac{7}{4}hours$

So, In one day she she reads 7/4 hours

$\tt In \:six \:days =(6 \times \frac{7}{4})hours\\\\\tt In \:six \:days =\frac{21}{2}hours$

Converting it into mix fraction

$\tt In \:six \:days =10\frac{1}{2}hours$

And she completed his reading in 6 days

So, the number of hours required to read the book is $\bf \tt 10\frac{1}{2}hours$
