How much more time did Maria spend doing research ?
Maria spends doing research = 30%
and using email = 15% of a day (24 hours)

Time spent on checking email = 15% of 24 = 
so, 
Hence , Maria spends 3.6 hours more on doing research than checking email.

Answer:
9x/4= -9
Mutiply by 4 for both sides.
4(9x/4) cross out 4 and 4, divide by 4 and then becomes 9x. (-9)(4)= -36
9x= -36
Divide by 9 for both sides
9x/9= -36/9
x= -4
