Number problem. You work 7 hours (h) one day, 5 h the second day, and 6 h the
third day. How long did you work, as a fraction of a 24-h day?
A-18/24?
reduce it. Both are multiples of six
3/4?
yes.
To find the total hours worked as a fraction of a 24-hour day, we need to add up the number of hours worked over the three days and then divide it by 24.
Let's add the number of hours worked:
7h + 5h + 6h = 18 hours
Now, we divide the total hours worked by 24 to get the fraction:
18 / 24
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6.
18 divided by 6 equals 3, and 24 divided by 6 equals 4. So, the simplified fraction is:
3 / 4
Therefore, you worked 3/4 of a 24-hour day.
