A robot can complete up to 8 tasks in 5/6 hour. each task takes the same amount of time.

storchak [24]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} tasks&hours\\ \cline{1-2}&\\ 8&\frac{5}{6}\\\\ 1&h \end{array}\implies \cfrac{8}{1}=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{h}\implies 8=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{\frac{h}{1}}\implies 8=\cfrac{5}{6}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h} \\\\\\ 8=\cfrac{5}{6h}\implies 48h=5\implies h=\cfrac{5}{48}\\\\[-0.35em] \rule{31em}{0.25pt}$

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} tasks&hours\\ \cline{1-2}&\\ 8&\frac{5}{6}\\\\ t&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{8}{t}=\cfrac{~~\frac{5}{6}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{8}{t}=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 48=5t \\\\\\ \cfrac{48}{5}=t\implies 9\frac{3}{5}=t$
