The number of hours he worked in all (written in fraction form) is
From the question,
Mario worked from 8:25 to 12:45 yesterday.
From 8:25 to 12:45 gives 4 hours 20 minutes
Also, from the question,
Today he will work from 11:20 to 3:10
From 11:20 to 3:10 gives 3 hours 50 minutes
To determine the number of hours he work in all, we will add the time spent working on the previous day to that of the current day. That is,
4 hours 20 minutes + 3 hours 50 minutes = 8 hours 10 minutes
Now, to put the answer in fraction form, we will convert 10 minutes to hours
NOTE: 60 minutes = 1 hour
∴ 10 minutes = =
∴ 8 hours 10 minutes =
Hence, the number of hours he worked in all (written in fraction form) is

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the figure = area of the down triangle + area of trapezium + area of the upper triangle
Down triangle:
Base b = 8 in
Height = 6 in
= 24 in²
Trapezium:
bases a = 4 in & b = 6 in
Height h = 5 in
= 25 in²
Area of the upper triangle:
Base b = 6 in
Height = (8 - 5) = 3 in
= 9 in²
Area of the figure = 24 + 25 + 9 = 58 in²
