Answer: 1824 hours

Explanation:

To find out how long it will take the row crew to repave a 38-mile road if they can't repay 1/48 miles of road each hour, you can set up a proportion:

Let "x" be the time it takes in hours.

1/48 miles/hour = 38 miles / x hours

Now, cross-multiply and solve for x:

1/48 * x = 38

x = 38 * 48

x = 1824

So, it will take the row crew 1824 hours to repave the 38-mile road.
