Answer:

Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week. For each 3 hours that he practices the violin, he practices 2.5 hours of cello. So

3h violin - 2.5h cello

9h violin - xh cello

3x = 9*2.5

x = 7.5

He practiced 7.5 hours of cello, the same as Nina.

For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours. So:

3h viola - 2h cello

xh viola - 7.5h cello

2x = 3*7.5

x = 7.5*1.5

x = 11.25

Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.

Help ASAP!!!<br> First to answer with a correct answer gets brain...
Llana [10]

Hey there!

First, let's multiply each side of the equation by 3 to get rid of the fraction \frac{2}{3}.

9 + 2x = \frac{6}{5}

Next we can multiply each side of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction \frac{6}{5}.

45 + 10x = 6

There's your answer!

Hope this helps!

Only if the individual doing the calculation makes a substantial mistake.

Any fraction with the same quantity in the numerator and denominator
always has the value of ' 1 ', (provided only that the quantity is not zero).
