Answer:

Austin studies 6 subjects.

Explanation:

Given data

  • Total time spent on homework: 2 hours
  • Time spent on math: 1/3 hour

Since the time spent on all subjects is equal, Austin spends 1/3 hour on each subject. We can find the number of subjects by dividing the total time by the time spent on each subject.

2 h / (1/3 h/subject) = 6 subject

Austin studies 6 subjects.
