Actually it would take 3/4 of an hour.
Explanation: If you did 1/3 of the wall in 1/4 of an hour, then to find how long it would take to finish you would multiply both by 3 because 1/3 x 3 is 1. So 1/4 x 3 = 3/4 which is also 45 minutes.

Answer:You would have to multiply

Step-by-step 1/4× 4/4 that will equal to 4/16 and then you reduce it so your answer is 1/4
