Example Question #71 : Solve Problems Involving Measurement And Conversion Of Measurements

On Saturday Jake raked leaves for 180 minutes and on Sunday he raked leaves for hours. In hours, how much total time did he spend raking on both Saturday and Sunday?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The first thing we need to do is put our minutes into hours because our final answer is asking for hours. We know that 1 hr=60min . We can set up a proportion and cross multiply to solve.

$\frac{1hr}{60min}=\frac{x}{180min}$

60min(x)=1hr(180min)

Then we can divide to isolate the .

$\frac{60min(x)}{60min}=\frac{1hr(180min)}{60min}$

x=3hr

Now we can add our hours together to find the total.

3hr+2hr=5hr

Example Question #72 : Solve Problems Involving Measurement And Conversion Of Measurements

Matt studied for 180 minutes everyday from Monday-Friday. How many total hours did he spend studying?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The first thing we need to do is put our minutes into hours because our final answer is asking for hours. We know that 1hr=60min . We can set up a proportion and cross multiply to solve.

$\frac{1hr}{60min}=\frac{x}{180min}$

60min(x)=180min(1hr)

Then we can divide to isolate the .

$\frac{60min(x)}{60min}=\frac{180min(1hr)}{60min}$

x=3hr

Now we need to multiply $3\times5$ because Matt studied for hours each day.

$3hr\times5=15hr$

Correct answer:

216

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ yard=36\ inches$ , and we can use as our unknown.

$\frac{1\ yard}{36\ inches}=\frac{6\ yards}{x\ inches}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate the on one side.

$36\ inches\times 6\ yards= 1\ yard \times x\ inches$

$\frac{36\ inches\times 6\ yards}{1\ yard}= 216\ inches$

The $\yards$ $\ yards$ will cancel and we are left with $216\ inches$
