0.85 is the decimal equivalent of 17/20.
Hey if you like my answer please give me the brainliest answer :)
Ok so we have a ratio of 1:3 here. (1 is for the hour of tv and 3 is for hours of homework)
3 can go into 15 (hours of homework last week) 5 times. That means we must multiply 3 by 5 to get 15 so that we can fit the ratio to last week. Because we did that, we have to multiply 1 by 5 as well.
1 × 5 = 5 hours of homework!
well 3x15= 45 and 15x17= 255 so 45+255= 300
