To find out how long Patricia studied for the science test, we need to find half of the time she studied for the social studies test.
Half of 4 1/2 hours is calculated as (1/2) * 4 1/2 = 9/2 * 1/2 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 hours.
Therefore, Patricia studied for the science test for 2 1/4 hours.

hours for her Social Studies test. She studied half as long for her science test as she did for the Social Studies test. How long did she study for the science test?(1 point)
