Explanation:

Given:

Yasmine needs to create invitations for the party.

She has ¾ of an hour to make the invitations.

It takes her 1/12 of an hour to make each card.

Question asked:

How many invitations can Yasmine create?

Solution:

Yasmine takes
`(1)/(12)` hour create number of cards = 1

Yasmine takes 1 hour to create number of cards =
`(1)/((1)/(12) )=1/(1)/(12)=1*(12)/(1) =12`

Yasmine takes
`(3)/(4)` hour to create number of cards =
`12*(3)/(4) =(36)/(4) =9`

Therefore, Yasmine can create 9 cards.
