Let's identify first what informations were given in the scenario:

What is Given: Rich works: 140 hours in a month.

What is being asked: How many hours he work in 3/4 of a month​?

To be able to determine how many hours did Rich works in 3/4 of a month, we generate this equation:


Rich^(\prime)s\text{ work hours in 3/4 month = (Work hours in a month)(3/4)}
\text{ = (140)(3/4) = }\frac{140\text{ x 3}}{4}
\text{ = }(420)/(4)
\text{Rich's work hours in 3/4 month = 105 hours}

Therefore, Rich works 105 hours in 3/4 of a month​.
