Question

Vera attends piano lesson twice a week for 1 1/2 hours each. she practices at home 2 3/4 hours each week. How many hours does Vera play her piano each one

Answer 1

5 3/4 hours or 5 hours and 45 minutes

Explanation:

piano lesson = 1 1/2 hours or 1 hour and 30 minutes

practice at home = 2 3/4 hours or 2 hours and 45 minutes

2(piano lesson) + practice at home = total each week

2(1 1/12) + 2 3/4 = total

2 x 1.5 + 2.75 = total

3 + 2.75 = 5.75

5.75 hours each week or 5 3/4 hours
