Question

1) The tape diagram represents the ratio of the time you spend reading to the timeyour friend spends reading. You read for 8 hours. How many hours does yourfriend spend reading? *

Answer 1

Answer:

By a quick online search, i found two tape diagrams:

Step-by-step explanation:So you have one block, and your friend has two.

We know that you work for 3 hours, this means that your only block must represent 3 hours.

And all the blocks represent the same amount of time, then each one of the two blocks of your friend also represents 3 hours.

Then in total, he tutored for 3 hours + 3 hours = 6 hours.

14) You: -

    Friend: - - - - -

In this case, you still have only one block, but now your friend has 5.

Using the same reasoning as above, we can conclude that each block represents 3 hours, and your friend has 5 of them, this means that he tutored for:

5*3 hours = 15 hours
