Fritz attended band practice for 5/6 hour. Then he went home and practiced for 2/5 as long as band practice. How many minutes did he practice at home?
\(\frac{2}{5} * \frac{5}{6} = \frac{10}{30} or \frac{1}{3}\) That means they practiced for 20 minutes at home
Answer:
\(20\ minutes\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find out how many minutes Fritz practiced at home, multiply the band practice time by \(2/5\) and then convert to minutes
so
\(\frac{5}{6}*\frac{2}{5}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\ hours\)
Convert hours to minutes
Remember that
\(1\ hour=60\ minutes\)
\(\frac{1}{3}\ hours=\frac{1}{3}*60=20\ minutes\)
