14 what of an hour?
Sorry about that but I figured it out and got the answer. Thanks for trying to help.
To find the expression that can be used to determine how many dish cloths Mona can make in 6 hours, we need to consider the time it takes to make one dish cloth and the total time available. The problem states that each dish cloth takes 14 of an hour to be made, and we want to find the number of dish cloths Mona can make in 6 hours.
The correct expression is:
6 ÷ 14
This expression represents the total time available (6 hours) divided by the time it takes to make one dish cloth (14 of an hour). By dividing these two values, we can determine how many dish cloths Mona can make in 6 hours.
Calculating the expression:
6 ÷ 14 = 0.43 (rounded to 2 decimal places)
So, Mona can make approximately 0.43 (or 43%) of a dish cloth in 6 hours.
However, since the question asks for the whole number of dish cloths Mona can make, we need to consider that she cannot make a fraction of a dish cloth. In this case, we would have to round down to the nearest whole number, as we cannot have a fraction of a dish cloth.
