Answer:

Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch
(1)/(6) (0.167) shirts.

Explanation:

Mike can stitch 7 shirts in 42 hours

to calculate the time that he takes to make 1 shirt, we have to divide 42 by 7.

He can stitch 1 shirt in =
(42)/(7) = 6 hours

Now we calculate the work done in one hour.

He can stitch in 1 hour =
(1)/(6) shirts or 0.167 shirts

Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch
(1)/(6) shirts.
