Someone help plz plz plz
prisoha [69]

Answer:I think it's 3 7.75/20 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 2/15 by 20 (2x20 and 15x20)

Then 13/20 by 15 (13x15 and 20x15)

Subtract (195/300 - 40/300)

And you get 155/300

Then divide by 20 because dividing by 15 gives you 10.333333

So divide 155/300 by 20 (155÷20 and 300÷20)

And you get 7.75/20

Finally subtract the 2 hours from 5 hours and get 3 hours

Your answer is 3 7.75 hours
