Gannon has swim practice 4 days a week. Practices are the same length each day except Monday, when practice is 2 hours long. If he practices a total of 5 hours, how long is practice on each of the other 3 days?​

Answer:

1 hour

Explanation:

If he totals 5 hours total, and Monday is 2 hours, that would make 3 hours left. So there is 3 hours, and 3 days, which can be simplified to 1 hour in 1 day

The other practices would one 1 hour.

If he practices a total of 5 hours:
5-2=3 for mondays practice
3 ÷ 3 = 1 for the rest of the practices
