A tax consultant takes 1 1/2

hours to prepare a personal tax return and 6 3/4 hours to prepare a small business return. How much longer does it take him to prepare the small business​ return?

1 answer

To find out how much longer it takes the tax consultant to prepare the small business return compared to the personal return, we need to calculate the difference in time.

6 3/4 hours = 6.75 hours
1 1/2 hours = 1.5 hours

The time difference is:
6.75 hours - 1.5 hours = 5.25 hours

Therefore, it takes the tax consultant 5.25 hours longer to prepare a small business return compared to a personal tax return.
