Question 1037513: John spent the following amounts of time building a workbench.
drawing plans two hours.
cutting the wood hour-and-a-half.
assembling the workbench 2 hours.
sanding and selling three and a half hours.
what is the ratio of time spent cutting wood to total time spent on the project. Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! total time spent on the project is equal to 2 + 1.5 + 2 + 3.5 = 9 hours.
time spent cutting is 1.5 hours.
ratio of time spent cutting the wood to the total time spent on the project is 1.5 / 9 = 1 / 6
he spent 1/6 of the total time on the project cutting wood.
1/6 * 9 = 9/6 = 1.5 hours.
