Joel took 4/5 of an hour to do his chores. it took halley 1/8 the time it took joel to do his chores. how much time did it take halley to do her chores? expre
Here is how we are going to find the answer. Firstly, we need to know what is 4/5 of an hour. An hour has 60 minutes. So we divide 60 by 5 which is 12 and multiply this by 4 and we get 48 minutes. Since it took Hailey 1/8 the time it took Joel to do his chores, now we are going to know what is 1/8 of 48 minutes. We divide 48 by 8 and we get 6. Since it is only 1/8, therefore, the time that Halley took to do her chores is only 6 minutes. Hope this helps.
