Susan has 2/3 of an hour left to make cards. It takes her about 1/6 of an hour to make each card. About how many cards can she make? *
10 points
2/3 = 4/6
Work it from there.
To find out how many cards Susan can make, we need to divide the total time she has by the time it takes to make each card.
1. First, let's convert 2/3 of an hour to a decimal. To do this, divide the numerator (2) by the denominator (3).
2 ÷ 3 = 0.6667 (rounded to four decimal places)
2. Next, let's convert 1/6 of an hour to a decimal. Divide the numerator (1) by the denominator (6).
1 ÷ 6 = 0.1667 (rounded to four decimal places)
3. Now, divide the total time Susan has by the time it takes to make each card.
0.6667 ÷ 0.1667 = 3.9996 (rounded to four decimal places)
Since we can't have a fraction of a card, we need to round our answer to the nearest whole number. In this case, rounding up because we can't make a fraction of a card.
Therefore, Susan can make approximately 4 cards.
