did he work in all (write in fraction form).

Respuesta :

The number of hours he worked in all (written in fraction form) is [tex]8\frac{1}{6} \ hours[/tex]

From the question,

Mario worked from 8:25 to 12:45 yesterday.

From 8:25 to 12:45 gives 4 hours 20 minutes

Also, from the question,

Today  he will work from 11:20 to 3:10

From 11:20 to 3:10 gives 3 hours 50 minutes

To determine the number of hours he work in all, we will add the time spent working on the previous day to that of the current day. That is,

4 hours 20 minutes + 3 hours 50 minutes = 8 hours 10 minutes

Now, to put the answer in fraction form, we will convert 10 minutes to hours

NOTE: 60 minutes = 1 hour

∴ 10 minutes = [tex]\frac{10}{60} \ hours[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{6} \ hours[/tex]

∴ 8 hours 10 minutes = [tex]8\frac{1}{6} \ hours[/tex]

Hence, the number of hours he worked in all (written in fraction form) is [tex]8\frac{1}{6} \ hours[/tex]
