Complete Question

Denise has 4 hours to paint crafts. She would like to spend no more than 1/4 of each hour on each craft. How many crafts can she paint during that time?

Answer:

16 crafts

Explanation:

From the above question, we know that:

1/4 hour = 1 craft

4 hours = x crafts

Cross Multiply

1/4hour × x crafts = 4 hours × 1 craft

x crafts = 4 hours ÷ 1/4 hour

x crafts = 4 × 4

x = 16 crafts

She can paint 16 crafts during that time.
