Samantha is starting a task that takes 3/5 of an hour to complete, but she only has 1/2 of an hour to work on it. If she works at an even pace, determine what fraction of the task will she complete.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "What part of 3/5 is 1/2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2F2%29%2F%283%2F5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "invert the dividing fraction and multiply
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F2\"$ * $\"5%2F3\"$ = $\"5%2F6\"$ of the task is completed \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
