Jaxon is training for a climbing competition.
He breaks his training up into strength and
endurance training in the ratio 5:3.
If he spends 4 hours on endurance training,
how long should he spend on strength training?

Sagot :

Answer:   6 hours, 40 minutes

======================================================

Work Shown:

(x hours strength)/(4 hours endurance) = 5/3

x/4 = 5/3

3x = 4*5

3x = 20

x = 20/3

x = (18+2)/3

x = 18/3 + 2/3

x = 6 + 2/3

x = 6 & 2/3

He needs to spend 6 full hours, plus an additional 2/3 of an hour, on strength training.

1 hr = 60 min

2/3 hr = (2/3)*60 min

2/3 hr = 40 min

6 hr + 2/3 hr = 6 hr + 40 min

Therefore, he needs to spend 6 hours, 40 minutes on strength training.

This is equivalent to 6*60+40 = 360+40 = 400 minutes.
