Answer: She's wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
Numbers of hours used in solving homework last week = 15
Numbers of hours used in solving homework this week = 18
Percentage increase = (18 - 15) / 15 × 100
= 3/15 × 100
= 1/5 × 100
= 20%
Since Maxie said that she spent 120% more time doing homework this week, she's wrong. She only spent 20% more.
1/2 / 4/5 = 1/2 *5/4 = 5/8
answer is 5/8 in.
