Question

Noel has been working on making handmade birthday cards for 11 over 12 hour if each car takes one over 6 hours to make how many whole cards did he make

Answer 1

To find out how many whole cards Noel made, you can divide the total time he has worked by the time it takes to make one card.

Noel has worked for \( \frac{11}{12} \) hours, and it takes \( \frac{1}{6} \) hours to make one card.

Now, divide \( \frac{11}{12} \) by \( \frac{1}{6} \):

\[
\frac{11}{12} \div \frac{1}{6} = \frac{11}{12} \times \frac{6}{1} = \frac{11 \times 6}{12 \times 1} = \frac{66}{12}
\]

Now simplify \( \frac{66}{12} \):

\[
\frac{66 \div 6}{12 \div 6} = \frac{11}{2}
\]

This equals \( 5.5 \). Since we are interested in whole cards, we can conclude that Noel made 5 whole cards.
