To find out how long it will take Stacy to paint the entire room, we need to find out how many sets of 3/4 hours are equivalent to 1 whole hour.

If Stacy can paint 3/4 of the room in 3 hours, then she can paint 1/4 of the room in 1 hour (since 3/4 divided by 3 is 1/4).

Therefore, it will take her 4 sets of 1/4 hours to paint the entire room.

So, it will take her 4 hours to paint the entire room.

To find out how long it will take Miguel to reach his destination, we need to find out how many sets of 2/3 hours are equivalent to 1 whole hour.

If Miguel can drive 2/3 of the total distance in 4 hours, then he can drive 1/3 of the distance in 2 hours (since 2/3 divided by 4 is 1/3).

Therefore, it will take him 3 sets of 2 hours to drive the entire distance.

So, it will take him 6 hours to reach his destination.

To find out how long it will take Iris to complete the entire floor, we need to find out how many sets of 2/3 hours are equivalent to 1 whole hour.

If Iris completes 2/3 of the floor in 1/3 of an hour, then she can complete 1/3 of the floor in 1/6 of an hour (since 2/3 divided by 1/3 is 2/6, which simplifies to 1/3).

Therefore, it will take her 3 sets of 1/6 hours to complete the entire floor.

So, it will take her 3/6 = 1/2 hour to complete the entire floor.
