James wanted to be ready for his upcoming baseball game. For 6 days in a row, he spent 4/5 of an hour practicing. How many hours did he spend practicing?

Sagot :

Answer:

4.8 hours or 4 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6 hours x 4/5 (0.8) = 4.8 hours (4 4/5).

we know an hour is 60 minutes, so  let's use 4/5 of 60 minutes

[tex]\cfrac{4}{5}\cdot 60\implies \underset{mins}{48}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{48 mins 6 times}}{6\cdot 48\implies \underset{mins}{288}}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{converting back to hrs}}{\cfrac{288}{60}\implies \cfrac{24}{5}\implies \underset{hrs}{4\frac{4}{5}}}[/tex]
