Question

A football team was training for four hours during the first hour they practice for five eights open hour during the second hour they practiced for 2/3 of an hour join the last two hours the first practice for 3/5 of an hour took a 1/2 hour break and then practice the rest of the time how much time did they spent practicing in total?

Answer 1

`2(19)/(24)` hours

Explanation:

Given,

The total numbers of hours allotted = 4,

In first 2 hours,

Practice in first hour =
`(5)/(8)` hour,

In second hour =
`(2)/(3)` hour,

Remaining hours = 4 - 2 = 2 hours,

In remaining 2 hours,

Practice in first hour =
`(3)/(5)` hour

Rest time =
`(1)/(2)` hour

Remaining time or practice in second hour =
`2-(1)/(2)-(3)/(5)=(20-5-6)/(10)=(9)/(10)`

Total time of practicing =
`(5)/(8)+(2)/(3)+(3)/(5)+(9)/(10)`

`=(75+80+72+108)/(120)`

`=(335)/(120)`

`=2(19)/(24)` hours
