Answer: Priya practiced for 189 minutes

Tyler practiced for 123 minutes

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Explanation: Now, Han spent 75 minutes practicing the piano over the weekend

Then, Priya practiced the violin for 152% as much time as Han practiced the piano.

Priya = 152% of 75 minutes + 75 minutes

= 152/100 × 75 + 75

= 1.52 × 75 + 75

= 114 + 75

= 189 minutes

Finally, Priya practiced for 189 minutes

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tyler practiced the clarinet for 64% as much time as Han practiced the piano.

Tyler = 64% of 75 minutes + 75 minutes

= 64/100 × 75 minutes + 75 minutes

= 64 / 100 × 75 + 75

= 0.64 × 75 + 75

= 48 + 75

= 123 minutes

Lastly, Tyler practiced for 123 minutes
