Question

Allison practices her violin for at least 12 hours per week. She practices for three fourths of an hour each session. If Allison has already practiced 3 hours this week, how many more sessions remain for her to meet or exceed her weekly practice goal?

Answer 1

If Allison practices for 3/4 of an hour each section that means she practices for 45 minutes each session because .75 or 3/4 of 60 mins is 45 mins. Then calculate how many hours she has left for the week which is 9 hours. Next calculate how many minutes are in 9 hours which is 540 mins. Then divide 45 by 540 and your answer should be at least 12 sessions.
