When you're out shopping and something you want to buy is on sale. You can take the original price and give it's percentage to find out how much it really is.
What we know:
1/6 = what Cody wathed
1 stands for the unit that cody has watched a move (minutes)
6 = stands for the entire length of the movie (minutes)
Tharefore: If 6 stands for the entire length of the movie the movie is equal to 3 hours. However we are giving the unit in minutes not in hours, it would be:
3 x 60 = 3 stands for the ours 60 stands for minutes in an hour. That equals to 180.
This means that the 6 = 100% = 180min of the movie.
To figure what 1 stands for we need to divide 1/6. That will equal to 0.1(6). 0.1(6) x 180 (minutes of the entire movie) = 30 which would be the answer. Here is what you should have done using mathematical communication:
converting 3 h to minutes:
3 x 60 = 180 minutes
180 = the length of the entire movie
1/6 = 0.1(6)
0.1(6) x 180 = 30
... 30 /180 is the fraction of minutes that Cody spend watching the movie
in other words Cody just spent 30 min watching the movie.

Answer:
9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to find the fraction form of 4.5... we need to set a denominator. The denominator has to be greater than 1 because we 4.5 is not a whole number...
we want the simplest denominator in the end... so we'll pick 2 for a denominator and change it if it doesn't work in the end...
now that we know the denominator... we have to make the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator (2)... when we do this... we get 8/2
since we made the numerator 4 times larger than the denominator... we know that 8/2 is the same as 4
now we need to find the remaining 1/2
this can be done by simply adding 1/2 to 8/2 (which is easily done thanks to a common denominator)
Since 9/2 cannot be simplified any further... it is our final answer
