Easton spent 3 ¾ hours practicing baseball. If Ellie practiced baseball for 1 ½ the amount of time that Easton spent practicing baseball, how many hours did she practice baseball? * 2 points

Respuesta :

Answer:

5[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The time Ellie spent practicing baseball is : 3[tex]\frac{3}{4} x 1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Convert the mixed fractions to an improper fraction

3 3/4 = 15/4

1 1/2 = 3/2

15 / 4 x 3/2 = 45/8

Convert 45/8 back to a mixed fraction

45/8 = 5[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
