Question

Jessica painted 3/4 of a room in 3/5 of an hour. How long will it take Jessica to paint the entire room?​

Answer 1

8/10 hours or 48 minutes.

Explanation:

State the problem as a rule of 3:

3/4 room --------- 3/5 hours

1 room ------------ x

`x=((1room*(3)/(5) hours))/((3)/(4)room)`

x= 0.8 hours.

• How much is 0.8 hours in minutes?

0.8 * 60 = 48 minutes.
