A radio station uses 1/6 of it's time for the news. In a 24 hour day, how many are used for music and entertainment? Wouldn't it

be 20 hours for music and entertainment?
Wouldn't it be 20 hours?

Since they used 4 hours for news, so 24 - 4 = 20 for music and entertainment?

Someone else is telling me it's 4 hours but I'm confused on their reasoning.

If they have 24 hours in a day, and use 1/6 of those 24 hours on news, they use 24*(1/6) or 4 hours on news. Assuming that they use the leftover time for just music and entertainment, we have 20h - 4h, so thats 20h. You were right. Not sure on their reasoning either.

St. Augustine grass can grow at the rate of 4 over 7 centimeter per week.
kotegsom [21]

Given, the rate of growth of St. Augustine grass is \frac{4}{7} cm per week.

We have to find the number of weeks that the grass grow to \frac{12}{7} cm.

Let's take the number of weeks be x.

In 1 week the grass grow = \frac{4}{7} cm

So in x weeks the grass grow = (\frac{4}{7}) (x) =\frac{4x}{7} cm

So we can write,

\frac{4x}{7} =\frac{12}{7}

To solve it for x, first we will move 7 to the right side by multiplying it to both sides. We will get,

(\frac{4x}{7}) (7) =(\frac{12}{7})(7)

4x =(\frac{12}{7})(7)

4x = 12

Now to get we will move 4 to the right side by dividing it to both sides. We will get,

\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{12}{4}

x = 3

So we have got the required answer.

After 3 weeks the grass grow \frac{12}{7} cm.
