Question

mike spends 2/3 of his time studying. on tuesday spends 1/6 of his time studying for his science test. what is the value of the combine time Mike studied for his science test?

Answer 1

(4/6) + (1/6) = 5/6

Answer 2

If Mike spends 1/6 of his study time on his science test, and his study time is 2/3 of all of his time, then you divide 1/6 by 2/3 to find that Mike spent (1/6)*(3/2)=3/12=1/4 of his time on Tuesday studying for the science test.
