Georgia practiced for her dance recital for 3/4 of an hour on Monday, 3/8 of an hour on Tuesday, and 5/6 of an hour on Wednesday. How much longer did she practice on Monday than on Tuesday?
ANSWER: 3/8 longer or 2 times longer or 22.5 minutes longer on Monday depending on the type of answer they want.
EXPLANATION: 3/8 longer or 2 times longer Explanation is: Gotta find common denominator Common denominator is 8 6/8 on Monday and 3/8 on Tuesday so difference of 3/8 or twice as long
22.5 Minutes Longer explanation is: 3/4 of an hour is 45 minutes (60/4=15x3=45) 3/8 of an hour is 7.5 minutes (60/8=7.5x3=22.5) So 45-22.5= 22.5 minutes longer on Monday
