Question

you are getting ready for a family vacation. You decide to download as many movies as possible before leaving for the road trip. If each movie takes 1 2/5 hours to download, and you downloaded for 5 1/4, how many movies did you download. EXPLAIN PLEASE I NEED HELP!!!!!

Answer 1

If all movies took the same time to download (unlikely), you could download (5 1/4) / (1 2/5) movies

= (21/4) / (7/5) = (21/4)*(5/7) = 15/4 = 3 3/4 movies.

If it takes 1 2 5 hours to download 1 movie, then in 5 1 4 hours, you will download 4 movies.
