How many hours did Jerry play with his 333 friends today?

Answer 1

8 1/8 hours

Explanation:

Jerry played with 3 friends today, all at different times.

Tommy = 1 7/8 hours

Nathan = 1 3/4 hours

Chris = 3 3/2 hours

How many hours did Jerry play with his 3 friends today?

Number of hours Jerry play with his 3 friends today = 1 7/8 + 1 3/4 + 3 3/2

= 15/8 + 7/4 + 9/2

= (15+14+36)/8

= 65/8

= 8 1/8 hours
