1 3/4 hours

There are 7 days in a week, so we will multiply by 7 days

Changing this to a mixed number

1 3/4 hours

Answer 2

Answer:

Margo practice $\frac{7}{4}$ hours each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Margo practices $\frac{1}{4}$ hour each day, then you can use a rule of three.

If Margo practice $\frac{1}{4}$ hour each day, then how many hours does she practice in 7 days (1 week).

1 day    ⇒ $\frac{1}{4}hour$

7 days ⇒ $x$

$x=\frac{7.\frac{1}{4}}{1} \\\\x=7.\frac{1}{4}\\\\x=\frac{7}{4} hours$.

Then, Margo practice $\frac{7}{4}$ hours each week.
