Question

It took Nick five-thirds of an hour to

complete his math homework on Monday,
three-fourths of an hour on Tuesday, and five-
sixths of an hour on Wednesday. How many
hours did he take to complete his homework
altogether?

Answer 1

3 hours and 25 minutes

Explanation:

1/3 = 20 minutes.

1/4 = 15 minutes.

1/6 = 10 minutes.

So,

5/3 = 100 minutes.

3/4 = 45 minutes.

5/6 = 50 minutes.

195 minutes / 60 minutes = 3 hours and 25 minutes
