Question

Kathleen worked for 4 hours and 45 minutes. How should she write that on her time card?

Answer 1

Answer:

4.75 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kathleen worked for 4 hours and 45 minutes.

We will convert 45 minutes to hours by dividing 45 by 60 as one hour has 60 minutes.

$\frac{\text{45 minutes}}{\frac{60\text{ minutes}}{\text{hour}}}$

$\frac{\text{45 minutes}}{60}\times \frac{\text{ hour}}{\text {minutes}}$

$\frac{3}{4}\times \text{ hour}$

$0.75\text{ hour}$

Therefore, she should write 4.75 hours on her time card.
