Colin’s piano lesson is 45 minutes, or 3/4 of an hour, long. If he practices 6 different songs and spends an equal amount of time on each song, what fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song?

Verified Answer :

45/6=7.5 so 7.5 minutes. 7.5/60=1.25 in this scenario this would translate to 12.5% 100/12.5=8 so one song in one eighth of an hour

Answer: \(\frac{1}{8}\) hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total time Collin spent on 6 songs =\(\frac{3}{4}\text{ hour}\)

Now, the fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song is given by :-

\(\frac{\text{Total time taken}}{\text{Total songs}}=\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{6}=\frac{3}{4\times6}=\frac{1}{8}\text{hour}\)

The fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song=\(\frac{1}{8}\)
