Answer 1

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Allen = \frac{3}{4}hr$ less than the most hour

Required

Hours read by Miss Allen

The question is incomplete, as the hours read by each student is not given.

To solve this, I will assume that the longest hours read by a student is x.

So, the expression for Miss Allen will be:

$Allen = x - \frac{3}{4}hr$

Assume that $x = 1hr$

The expression becomes

$Allen = 1hr - \frac{3}{4}hr$

Take LCM and solve

$Allen =\frac{4 - 3}{4}hr$

$Allen =\frac{1}{4}hr$
