A road crew must repave a road that is 3/8 miles long. They can repave 1/48 miles each hour. How long will it take the crew to repave the road. (PLEASE HELP THIS IS DUE IN 10 MINS
The answer is 18 hours. We know 8 is a factor of 48, so we do 3/8 times 6/6 and get 18/48. So there is 18 1/48 in that fraction, so it will take them 18 hrs.
