Question

emily practices the piano for 2/3of an hour on Monday and 1/2 hour on Wednesday how many hours does she practice in a week

Answer 1

First add them together to do this find a common denominator, in this case it would be 6.
Then you will get 4/6 and 3/6, now add them together.
The fraction now is 7/6 or 1 1/6.
Multiply by 10 because there are 60 minutes in an hour, and the denominator 6 and 6 x 10 = 60.

ANSWER: 1 HOUR AND 10 MINUTES

Answer 2

2/3 of an hour = 40minutes (in one hour) then 1/2 of an hour = 30 minutes (in one hour) 30+40=70 minutes and 70 minutes= 1 hour and 10 minutes!! Hope that helps:)
