On 6 different days, Sydney read a book for 4/5 of an hour. What was the total amount of time she read her book in 6 days?? A) 24/30. B) 10/11. C) 10/5. D) 24/5...?
What is your answer?
24/5
To find the total amount of time Sydney read her book in 6 days, we need to multiply the time she read for one day (4/5 of an hour) by the number of days (6).
Multiplying (4/5) by 6, we get:
(4/5) x 6 = 24/5
Therefore, the total amount of time Sydney read her book in 6 days is 24/5 of an hour.
So, the answer is D) 24/5.
To find the total amount of time Sydney read her book in 6 days, we need to multiply the time she spent reading each day (4/5 of an hour) by the number of days (6).
First, multiply the numerator of the fraction (4) by the number of days (6):
4 x 6 = 24.
Then, multiply the denominator of the fraction (5) by the number of days (6):
5 x 6 = 30.
Therefore, the total amount of time Sydney read her book in 6 days is 24/30.
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6.
Dividing the numerator, 24, by 6 gives us 4.
Dividing the denominator, 30, by 6 gives us 5.
So, the simplified fraction is 4/5.
Hence, the correct answer is A) 24/30, which is equal to 4/5.
