To find the answer, we can set up a proportion. We know that Stacy can paint 34/3 = 11.333...% of the room in 1 hour. Let's call the time it takes her to paint the entire room "x" hours.
So, we can set up the proportion 11.333.../1 = 100/x.
To solve for x, we can cross multiply and divide:
11.333... * x = 1 * 100
11.333...x = 100
x = 100/11.333...
x ≈ 8.8 hours
Therefore, it will take Stacy approximately 8.8 hours to paint the entire room. Since this answer is not listed, none of the options provided are correct.
Stacy is painting her bedroom. She is able to paint 34 of the bedroom in 3 hours. At this rate, how long will it take her to paint the entire room?(1 point)
