Question

You paint 1 2 12 wall in 1 4 14 hour. At that rate, how long will it take you to paint one wall

Answer 1

The answer is 1/2 an hour

Explanation:

1. First, you know that in 1/4 of an hour, you paint 1/2 of the wall
2. Since we know that it took them 1/4 of an hour to paint half of the wall, to paint the other half of the wall it would also take 1/4 of an hour
3. Then, 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
4. So it takes 2/4 of an hour to finish painting one wall.
5. Lastly, you can reduce 2/4 to 1/2

So your final answer is 1/2 hour

Answer 2

ok. well the answer 1/2 the hour you paint 1/2 in 1/4 so add 1/2+1/2=1 so it is 2 so 1/4+1/4
