the answer is 57.
3 weeks = 21 days
1197/21=57

Answer:

57

Explanation:

We need to create a ratio. so Aubree practices the piano for 1197 min: in 3 weeks. So for 1 week, we have to divide 1197 by 3, so 1197/=399. And so we know that 1 week is 7 days, just divide 399 by 7! 399/7=57. The rate that she practiced per day is 57 minutes. So one last final step just to check if this answer is correct is to divide 57 by 60, and that is 0.95. 0.95 out of 1.00 minutes per day is 95/100. Cross multiply with x/60, and you will get your answer, which is 57.
