Several friends are taking turns flying a kite. Each friend flies the kite for the same amount of time. They spend six hours flying the kite altogether. Explain what information you need to find how long each friend flew the kite.

How many friends are there?

seven

To determine how long each friend flew the kite, you need to gather the following information:

1. The total number of friends: This will help in dividing the total flying time equally among them.

2. The total flying time: In this case, it is given that they spent six hours flying the kite altogether.

Once you have this information, you can divide the total flying time by the number of friends to determine how long each friend flew the kite.
