Answer:

2 a) 15 hours

b) 1/3

c) 7/24 hours

Explanation:

2 a) 5/8 x 3/3 is 15/24, since there are 24 hours in a day, so a baby sleeps 15 hours

b) 8 hours a day is 8/24, if you simplify you get 1/3

c) so in the question they gave adults sleep 8 hours a day, and we found out baby sleeps 15 hours a day, so when the baby is sleeping, the mother would be awake for 7 hours, you should subract 15 by 8. so they asked the fraction, you just give 7/24

Answer:

a. 15 hr/day

b. 1/3 day

c. 7/24 day

Explanation:

a. (5/8)*(24 hr/day) = 15 hours/day babies should sleep.

b. (8 hr/24 hr/day) = 1/3 day adults should sleep

c. The mother sleeps 8 hr a day, and only when her baby is sleeping. That means the baby is awake (15-8) = 7 hours each day when the baby is sleeping. (7 hr/24 hr/day) = 7/24 day mom is awake while the baby is sleeping.
