Answer:

The question is lacking the accompanying line plot, I found a matching line plot online:

Answers:

a) The number of minutes te greatest number of students took to do their homework = 40 minutes

b) The number of combined hours the students spent on their homework [tex]= 5\frac{1}{3}\ hours[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, the greatest number of students ( 8 students) take 2/3 hours to do their homework. Converting this time to minutes:

1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 2/3 hours = 60 × 2/3 = 120/3 = 40 minutes

∴ 40 minutes is the time the greatest number of students take to do their homework

b) combined hours those students did their homework is calculated as follows:

total time =  (number of hours used by 1 student) × number of students

[tex]Total\ time = \frac{2}{3} \times 8 = \frac{16}{3}\\= 5\frac{1}{3} \ hours[/tex]
