Lucy spends 4 hours a week babysitting.Her Sister Lily spends 7/8 as much time babysitting. Does Lily babysit for more or less than 4 hours?

Question

7/8•4= 20/32
But then how do I break that down ?

Answer 1

7/8•4 does not equal 20/32

Answer 2

So we divide 4 divide 7/8 ? Sorry

Answer 3

(7/8) * 4 = 28/8 = 3 4/8 = 3 1/2
