Sara has 4 hour each evening to spend ether doing homework or listening to music If she consistently dose her homework for 1 1/2 hours each school night for one week what is the ratio of the amount of time doing homework to listening to music

Answer 1

In one week, there are 7 school nights.

If Sara consistently does her homework for 1 1/2 hours each school night, the total time spent doing homework in one week would be:

1.5 hours/day * 7 days = 10.5 hours

The total time available each evening is 4 hours, which means the total time available for listening to music in one week would be:

4 hours/day * 7 days = 28 hours

Therefore, the ratio of time spent doing homework to listening to music is:

10.5 hours : 28 hours

This ratio can be simplified to:

3 : 8

So, the ratio of the amount of time doing homework to listening to music is 3:8.
