Answer: 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation: For this problem we will write a percent equation to solve for 100% and how many total hours it will take angel to finish the entire project.

Lets write a equation to solve for w, total amount of hours.

9/w = 75/100

9/w x w = 75/100 x w

9 = 75w/100

9 x 100/75 = 75w/100 x 100/75

w = 12

So, it will take Angel 12 hours to finish his entire project.
