Colin’s piano lesson is 45 minutes, or 3/4 of an hour, long. If he practices 6 different songs and spends an equal amount of time on each song, what fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song?

Respuesta :

45/6=7.5 so 7.5 minutes. 7.5/60=1.25 in this scenario this would translate to 12.5% 100/12.5=8 so one song in one eighth of an hour 

Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total time Collin spent on 6 songs =[tex]\frac{3}{4}\text{ hour}[/tex]

Now, the fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song is given by :-

[tex]\frac{\text{Total time taken}}{\text{Total songs}}=\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{6}=\frac{3}{4\times6}=\frac{1}{8}\text{hour}[/tex]

The fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song=[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
