Answer 1

Answer:

a) 5/18 hour

a) 3 3/5 tasks

Step-by-step explanation:

A robot can complete 3tasks in five sixth hour. Each task takes the same amount of time.

a. How long does it take the robot to complete one​ task?

3 tasks => 5/6 hour

1 task => x

3x = 1 × 5/6 hour

x = 5/6 ÷ 3

x = 5/6 × 1/3

x => 5/18 hour

b. How many tasks can the robot complete in one​ hour?

5/6 hour = 3 tasks

1 hour =>x tasks

5/6x = 1 × 3

x = 3 ÷ 5/6

x = 3 × 6/5

x = 18/5

x = 3 3/5 tasks
