Answer:
The decimal number is 0.964
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
step 1
Multiply each fraction by the whole number
step 2
Convert each fraction in a decimal number
Remember
Move the decimal point to the left as many places as there are zeros in the factor.
Move the decimal point one step to the left (10 has one zero).
Move the decimal point two steps to the left (100 has two zeros)
Move the decimal point three steps to the left (1000 has three zeros)
step 3
Adds the number

This one you can't really make a formula for or anything, but it's fairly simple to figure out, with a bit of guess and check.
14 is really close to 15, but that's bigger, so let's try a smaller number that would work.
It has to be divisible by 2, because you've got a whole number that is 3 1/2 times the other number. (1/2 of a whole number means it's divisible by 2).
10 is divisible by 2,
10 ÷ 2 = 5
But, 10 x 3 = 30 which is much bigger than 14.
So, we've got to start with a smaller number.
Let's try something really small, like 4. We could try 2, but 2 x 3 = 6, which, even with 1/2 of 2, isn't nearly close to 14.
Now, 4 x 3 = 12
That's quite close to 14.
And 1/2 of 4 is 2.
All we do now is add 12 to 2 and see if it works.
12 + 2 = 14
14 = 14
This one works.
That means that Gina volunteered for 4 hours, because 3 1/2 x 4 = 14.
