It takes Audrey 3/5 hour to paint 2/5 square yards of wood to be used for making shelves. How many square yards can she paint in 1 hour? Enter your answer in the box as a fraction in simplest form.

shasha12:

2/3?

AngeI:

.6 hours for .4 wood. So that means that for every .15 hours she works she will do .1 wood

AngeI:

So 1 divided by .15 is 6.66667 which in this cause we can ignore that period in that spot and move it to .666667 which is 2/3

thank you
