You need about 1 1/2 hours to set up a computer workstation. At this rate, how many hours should it take you to set up 7 of these workstations? A 4 2/3 B 8 1/2 C 10 D 10 1/2 E 11 2/3

Respuesta :

if it is 1.5 hrs to set up one, then to set up 7, it would be 7 * 1.5 = 10.5 (or 10 1/2) hrs

It will take total [tex]10\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours to set up seven workstations.

What is unitary method?

What is mixed fraction?

A fraction represented with its quotient and remainder is a mixed fraction.

How to convert a mixed fraction into improper fraction?

To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction, follow these steps:

  1. Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator.
  2. Add that to the numerator.
  3. Then write the result on top of the denominator.

 

According to the given question.

Time taken to set up a single computer workstation = [tex]1\frac{1}{2}hours[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{3}{2} hours[/tex]

Therefore,

The number of hours needed to set up seven workstations

= [tex]\frac{3}{2} \times 7[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{21}{2}[/tex]

[tex]= 10\frac{1}{2} hours[/tex]

Hence, it will take total [tex]10\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours to set up seven workstations.
