bernie spends three hours a day on homework. if the spends 3/4 of an hour on science, 3/4 of an hour on social studies, and 1/4 of an hour on english, how much time does bernie spend on math

Answer 1

3/4 of an hour is 45 minutes
1/4 of an hour is 15 minutes
3 hours is 180 minutes

3/4 + 3/4 = 90 minutes ( 45 + 44 )
90 + 15 = 105

180 - 105 = 75 minutes

Bernie will spend 75 minutes on math

Answer 2

Explanation:

Math = 3 - Science - social studies - english

Math = 3 - 3/4 - 3/4 - 1/4

Math = 3 - 1 3/4

Math = 3 - 1.75

Math = 1.25 or 1 1/4
