Answer:

1 7/10 hours more

Step-by-step explanation

Amount of time Mike spent = 3 4/5hrs

Amount of time Isela spent = 2 1/10 hours

To determine the number of hours Mike spent more than Isels, we will ake their hours difference

3 4/5 - 2 1/10

Convert to improper fraction

19/5 - 21/10

Find the LCM

= 2(19)-21/10

= (38-21)/10

= 17/10

= 1 7/10 hours

Hence Mike spent 1 7/10 hours more tha Isela
