If you paint 1/3 of a wall in 1/4 hour.at that rate,how long will it take you to paint one wall?

1 answer:

5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1 part of 3 sections of a wall takes 1/4 of an hour, (.25 or 25% of an hour), (15 minutes is 1/4 of 60 minutes), so if it takes 15 minutes for one section to be painted & you have 3 sections,

(15+15+15) or (15×3)

= your answer

If and only if it is a proportional relationship, the problem can be solved by creating a proportion of B1/T1=B2/T2. This can also be expressed as 4.5/3.5=5.4/x given the values. You must cross multiply, so 4.5x=3.5(5.4). This simplifies to x=4.2. So, the tail length would be 4.2 feet.

Hope this helps.
