Answer:


51(4)/(17)

Explanation:

If we add all of the fractions together, we 'd get 55/17 of an hour. The question is to find how many hours she spent exercising. Well, for that we'd just need to see how many seventeens fit inside 55. We could divide, but that'd lead us to a really long, weird number.

Since 17*3=51, we know that in total, three seventeens fit inside 55. Yet, there's still remainders.

55-51=4

So, our answer would be 51 (how many 17s go into 55) and 4/17 (the remainder.)

Hope this helps!! <3 :)
