On Tuesday, Karen finished all her chores in 3/4 of an hour. On Wednesday, she finished her chores in 5/12 of an hour. How much faster was Karen on Wednesday than Tuesday?

Sagot :

1 hour = 60 minutes

Tuesday: 60 divided by 4 = 15. Karen did it 3/4 of a hour so we multiply 15 by 4 which is 45. 45 equals 45 minutes. On Tuesday, Karen finished her chores in 45 minutes

Wednesday: first we divide 60 by 12 which is 5. 5 would equal 5 minutes. now we multiply 5 by 5 which is 25. Karen finished her chores in 25 minutes.

Answer: Karen finished her chores 20 minutes faster on Wednesday than Tuesday.

Hope this helps!
