Answer:

5 hours each day

Step-by-step explanation:

Nicholas paints for 32 hours this week. He paints 7 hours on the weekend which leaves 32 - 7 = 25 for weekdays Monday - Friday. Since he paints the same each of the five weekdays, divide 25/5 = 5 hours each day.

A number line would divide up 32 into 5 sections of 5 and one section of 7.

5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 7
