Maria has to spend 5 1/2 hours to finish her community service program in a community health clinic. Last week, she was able to spend 3 3/4 hours. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours, h , that Maria still needs to spend to complete her service program?(1 point) Responses h − 3 3/4 = 5 1/2 h minus 3 and three-fourths equals 5 and one-half h + 3 3/4 = 5 1/2 h plus 3 and three-fourths equals 5 and one-half h + 5 1/2 = 3 3/4 h plus 5 and one-half equals 3 and three-fourths h − 5 1/2 = 3 3/4

1 answer

The correct equation to determine the number of hours Maria still needs to spend to complete her service program is:
