Grace and her father spent four and a half hours over the weekend restoring their fishing boat. This time makes up 6%of the timeneeded to fully restore the boat. How much total time is needed to fully restore the boat?

Respuesta :

To answer this you can use proportions.
4 1/2 6%
------- = ----
X 100%

So, 6/4.5=1.3333...
Finally, 100/1.3333... appeoximately gives you 75.
75 hours are needed to restore the boat.
Hope this helped!
