rest per hour = 27 min / 6
multiply the result by 8
multiply the result by 8
Let's assume that "x" represents the amount of time the couple rests in 8 hours.
We have the following proportion:
6 hours / 27 minutes = 8 hours / x
To solve for "x", we can cross-multiply:
6 hours * x = 8 hours * 27 minutes
Now, let's convert 27 minutes to hours by dividing it by 60:
27 minutes รท 60 = 0.45 hours
Plugging in the values, we have:
6x = 8 * 0.45
Simplifying:
6x = 3.6
Dividing both sides by 6 to isolate "x":
x = 3.6 รท 6
x = 0.6
Therefore, the couple will rest for 0.6 hours in 8 hours, which is equivalent to 0.6 * 60 = 36 minutes.
