Answer:
It took Chau 5 hours, 52 minutes, and 30 seconds to clean both rooms.
Explanation:
Given that Chau took 5 3/8 hours to clean the bedroom, and then he took a 1/2 to clean the den, to determine how much total time did he take to clean two rooms the following calculation must be performed:
5 + 3/8 + 1/2 = X
5 + 0.375 + 0.5 = X
5.875 = X
0.875 = 7/8
60/8 x 7 = 52.5
Therefore, it took Chau 5 hours, 52 minutes, and 30 seconds to clean both rooms.
