c) 3+ 5/6 = 8/8?9 hour
d) 3 x 5/6 = 15/6 hours
The complete information and diagram can be found in: https://brainly.com/question/16451231
Step-by-step explanation:
Total time of movie = 3hr
The model shows the amount of time spent on the movie and the amount spent on commercials.
We are required to find the total number of time spend on the movie without including the time spent on the commercials for the 3hours duration of the movie.
From the diagram, the total number of squares in the diagram is seen as a whole = 1
The amount of time the movie is playing per hour = the shaded region = 5/6
The amount of time spent on commercials = 1 - (5/6) = 1/6
After 3 hrs, the amount of time spent in playing the movie = (5/6) × 3hours
= (5/6) × 3
After 3 hrs, the amount of time spent in playing the movie = 15/6
The equation that represents the total number of hours for the movie, not including the time for the commercials: 3 × 5/6 = 15/6 hours
