Charla wants to cover a certain rectangler area of her drive way with a picture using chalk. If she complets 2/3 of the area in 2/3 hours how long will it take her to complete the entire image
If Charla completes 2/3 of the area in 2/3 hours, this means she completes 1/3 of the area in 1/3 hours (since 2/3 + 1/3 = 1).
Therefore, it will take her 1/3 hours to complete 1/3 of the area.
If it takes her 1/3 hours to complete 1/3 of the area, it will take her 3/3 hours (which is equal to 1 hour) to complete the entire image.
To find out how long it will take Charla to complete the entire image, we need to determine the time it takes her to complete 1/3 of the area of her driveway.
Given that she completes 2/3 of the area in 2/3 hours, we can calculate the time it takes to complete 1/3 of the area:
2/3 area = 2/3 hours
1/3 area = (2/3 hours) / (2/3) = 1 hour
Therefore, it will take Charla 1 hour to complete 1/3 of the area.
To find out how long it will take her to complete the entire image, we can multiply the time it takes her to complete 1/3 by 3:
1 hour * 3 = 3 hours
So, it will take Charla 3 hours to complete the entire image.
To find out how long it will take Charla to complete the entire image, we need to calculate the time taken for each fraction of the area. We know that she completes 2/3 of the area in 2/3 hours.
To determine the time taken for each fraction, we can set up a proportion:
(2/3 area) / (2/3 hours) = (1 area) / (x hours)
By cross-multiplying, we have:
(2/3 area) * (x hours) = (1 area) * (2/3 hours)
Now, we can cancel out the area and solve for x:
2x/3 = 2/3
Multiplying both sides by 3, we get:
2x = 2
To isolate x, we divide by 2:
x = 2/2
Therefore, the time it will take Charla to complete the entire image is 1 hour.
