Answer:
C, 8 hours
Why?
Because adding the given areas are 2 + 3 + 1 = 6 hours
Now we know that a given fact is that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour.
Let's add the minutes first, 45 + 45 + 30 = 120
120 divided by 60 = 2 hours
Now let's add ALL the areas:
6 hours + 2 hour = 8 hours.
First, identify what fracion of an hour Larre spent outside using the model.
Since the square is divided in 4 equal parts, then the denominator of the fraction that Larre wants to represent is 4.
On the other hand, since 2 of those 4 parts are colored, then the numerator of the fraction that Larre wants to represent is 2.
Then, the fraction represented by the visual model is:
To find the answer, find an equivalent fraction by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by 2:
Therefore, an equivalent fraction that can be made by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2, is:
The correct choice is option C) 4/8.
