Should I divide or multiply for this math problem: Nick spent 1 3/4 hours doing homework. Of that time, 2/3 was spent on a social studies project. How many hours did Nick spend working on the project?

Multiply.


1 (3)/(4) * (2)/(3)= (7)/(4) * (2)/(3)=(7)/(2) * (1)/(3)=(7)/(6)=1 (1)/(6)

Nick spent 1 1/6 hours working on the project.
