Amount of time read by Julia on Sunday: 1 3/4 hours
Amount of time read by Julia on Monday: 5/6 hours
To find:
To write an expression to show the total amount of time Julia read.
Step-by-step solution:
Total time read by Julia = Time read by Julia on Saturday + Time read by Julia on Sunday + Time read by Julia on Monday
Total time read by Julia = 2 1/2 hours + 1 3/4 hours + 5/6 hours
Total time read by Julia = 5/2 hours + 7/4 hours + 5/6 hours
Total time read by Julia = ( 5/2 + 7/4 + 5/6 ) hours
Total time read by Julia = ( 17/4 + 5/6 ) hours
Total time read by Julia = ( 51/12 + 10/12 ) hours
Total time read by Julia = ( 61/12 ) hours.
Total time read by Julia = 5.08 hours
