Naysha listens to the radio for 5/6 of an hour each day. Which expressions represent the time Naysha spends listening to the radio in a 7-day period?

1 answer

To find the total time Naysha spends listening to the radio in a 7-day period, we can multiply the daily listening time by the number of days.

Naysha listens to the radio for \( \frac{5}{6} \) of an hour each day. Over 7 days, the total time spent can be represented by the expression:

\[ 7 \times \frac{5}{6} \]

This can also be expressed as:

\[ \frac{5}{6} \times 7 \]

Both of these expressions calculate the total hours Naysha spends listening to the radio over the course of a week.

If you want to find the total time in hours, you can simplify:

\[ 7 \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{7 \times 5}{6} = \frac{35}{6} \text{ hours} \]

Thus, Naysha spends \( \frac{35}{6} \) hours listening to the radio in a 7-day period.
