Question

Ranjan took 7by8 hour to paint a table and 2by3 hour to paint a chair. How much time did he take in panting both items?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 day 13 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

time taken to paint the table= 7/8 hr

time taken to paint the chair= 2/3 hr.

total time taken = (7/8 + 2/3) hr             [ LCM= 24]

7/8=21/24               2/3=16/24

21/24 + 16/24 = 37/24 hrs. = 1 13/24 hr

                                           = 1 day and 13 hours.

therefore the total time taken to paint both the items is 1 day 13 hours.
