Answer:
science = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \ hours[/tex]
English = [tex]\frac{8}{3} \ hours[/tex]
Math = 4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of hours spend on science = x
Hence the number of hours on English will be = 2x
Given that the number of hours spend on science is one third of the time spend on maths. Hence the time spend on math is 3 times that of the time spend on science. That the time spend on maths is = 3x
Hence the total time to study is
x+2x+3x
which is given as 8 hours
Hence
x+2x+3x =8
6x=8
dividing both sides by 6
[tex]\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{8}{6}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{8}{6}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Hence the number of hours foe studying science = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Number of hours to study English = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \times 2[/tex]=[tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Number of hours to study Math= [tex]\frac{4}{3} \times 3[/tex]=[tex]4[/tex]
