5 answers

To find 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 4/12 is calculated by multiplying 4/12 by 1/2:

(4/12) * (1/2) = 4/24

So Patricia studied 4/24 hours for her science test.
I dont have those choices
I apologize for the confusion. Let's simplify the fraction 4/12. The numerator and denominator both have a common factor of 4. Dividing both numerator and denominator by 4, we get:

4/12 = (4/4) / (12/4) = 1/3

So Patricia studied for 1/3 hours for her Social Studies test.

Now, to find how long she studied for the science test, we need to determine half of 1/3.

Half of 1/3 is calculated by multiplying 1/3 by 1/2:

(1/3) * (1/2) = 1/6

Therefore, Patricia studied for 1/6 hours for the science test.
a 2 1/4
b..2 1/2
c..9hr
d..1/2
I apologize for the previous incorrect response. Let's solve the problem correctly this time.

Patricia studied for 4/12 hours for the Social Studies test. To find how long she studied for the science test, we need to find half of 4/12.

Half of 4/12 can be calculated by multiplying 4/12 by 1/2:

(4/12) * (1/2) = 4/24

To simplify 4/24, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:

4/24 = (4/4) / (24/4) = 1/6

Therefore, Patricia studied for 1/6 hours for the science test.
