Answer:

t = 100 minutes, or 1 hr, 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

5/15 of 1 hour is the same as 5/15 of 60 minutes, which is 20 minutes

you can set up a proportion of hw completed / minutes = hw completed / min:

(1/5 ÷ 20) = (1 ÷ t) we use '1' to indicate all homework (or 100% of hw) and 't' to indicate time required

cross-multiply to get:

20 = 5/t

t = 100 minutes, or 1 hr, 40 minutes

How can I do ratios? I’ve been having a lot of trouble with this in my math class, and really need some help.

Katarina [22]

If you have a fraction, take one number and put a different number on top or underneath, for example if you have 2 cats and 3 dogs, the ratio from cats to dogs would be 2:3 but if you did 2 cats to the total number of animals, you would add 2 and 3 and get 5, so the ratio would be 2:5.
