Javie divides her day sleeping, working, and playing in the ratio 2:3:1 How many hours does she spend for each activity?

Sagot :

Sleeping: 2x
Working: 3x
Playing: 1x
Number of hours in a day: 24

Equation:
2x + 3x + 1x =24
6x = 24
6x /6 = 24/6
x = 4
 
Substitute 4 for x,
Number of hours for each activity
Sleeping: 2 (4) = 8 hours
Working: 3 (4) = 12 hours
Playing: 1(4) = 4 hours
