Angela practiced piano during the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) for 6 hours.  

  • Amount Angela spent on Saturday = 2\frac{1}{3}
  • Amount Angela spent on Sunday = 3\frac{2}{3}
<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

To determine the total amount spent on both days of the weekend =

Amount Angela spent on Saturday + Amount Angela spent on Sunday =

= 2\frac{1}{3} (otherwise expressed as \frac{7}{3}) + 3\frac{2}{3}(otherwise expressed as \frac{11}{3})

Significantly, we look for the lowest common denominator (LCD) of both denominators (3 and 3). Since both values are same, we therefore make use of 3.

LCD = 3

= \frac{7}{3} + \frac{11}{3}

= (1 x 7) + (1 x 11) / 3

= (7) + (11) / 3

= 7 + 11 / 3

= \frac{18}{3}

= 6 hours

Friday is not included because weekend starts on Saturday and ends on Sunday.  

Hence, on Saturday, she practiced for 2\frac{1}{3} hours; On Sunday she practiced for 3\frac{2}{3} hours. The addition of the hours spent on both days is 6 hours.

The above mathematical expression denotes a number problem, and it deals with fraction. In order to derive a solution, it is important an order of operations i.e BODMAS is applied.

The denominators of the both fractions are the same (3), thereby it was used to factor out the numerators (7) and (11), and subsequently arriving at the final answer which is 6 hours.

For this case, they ask us to find the time that Angela practices on the piano during the weekend.

Friday:

2 \frac {1} {2} = 2 + \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 2 + 1 * 1} {2 * 1} = \frac {5} {2}

Saturday:

2 \frac {1} {3} = 2 + \frac {1} {3} = \frac {3 * 2 + 1 * 1} {3 * 1} = \frac {7} {3}

Sunday:

3 \frac {2} {3} = 3 + \frac {2} {3} = \frac {3 * 3 + 2 * 1} {3 * 1} = \frac {11} {3}

Adding we have:

\frac {5} {2} + \frac {7} {3} + \frac {11} {3} =\\\frac {5} {2} + \frac {18} {3} =\\2.5 + 6 =\\8.5

So, Angela practiced 8.5 hours during the weekend. This is equivalent to 8 \frac {1} {2}

Answer:

8.5 hours

8 \frac {1} {2} hours

The bill for the repair of a computer was $179. The cost of part was $44, and labor charge was $45 per hour. How many hours did
Cloud [144]
Alright! First you'd subtract the amount of the part ($44) from your total ($179), then you'd divide by the rate of cost ($45). Your equation would be:
($179 - $44) ÷ $45 = h.

Then you solve:
($179 - $44) = $135
($135 ÷ $45) = 3
h = 3.

The answer is 3 hours.

Sasha is making some shelves which are 75.5 cm long. If the wood she is using is 180 cm long, how many pieces will she need to m
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shelves are 75.5cm long, the total length she would be needing is 75.5cm × 6 = 453cm

Now, the length of the wood she is using is 180cm, to get enough length to make the shelves, we would need to divide 453cm by 180cm which gives a value of around 2.51

This is approximately equal to 3 when rounded up to the nearest whole number.
