A radio station spends 1/40 of each 24 hours on public service announcements. How much time is spent on public service announcements each day?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: They spent 0.6 hours =36 minutes on public service announcements each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours in a day  = 24 hours

Fraction of hour a radio station spends on public service announcements = (1)/(40)

So, Number of hours spent on public service announcements each day would be

(1)/(40)* 24\n\n=(24)/(40)\n\n=0.6\ hours

As we know that

1 hour = 60 minutes

0.6 hours = 0.6×60 = 36 minutes

Hence, they spent 0.6 hours = 36 minutes on public service announcements each day.
Answer 2
Answer: Start by calling the time spend on announcements 'A'. We can then set up an equation to represent the problem:

A=24hours * (1)/(40)

and then solve by multiplication to get:

A=0.6hours

We could also convert this into minutes:

A=0.6hours * (60mins)/(1hour) = 36mins

What is greater 1/3 or 1/8

Answers

1/3 is greater. Picture a pie with nothing cut into it. Then, you cut 3 equal pieces out of it, leaving no pie remaining. So, if you take 1 piece, you have 2 pieces that you didn't take. So if you do the exact same thing, but you cut 8 pieces out of the pie and you take 1 piece, there are still 7 pieces remaining. So 1/8 is a smaller part of the pie than the 1/3, since you are cutting the pie into 8 identical pieces while with 1/3 you are cutting the same sized pie into 3 pieces. Sorry if I was confusing, just ask me if you want an easier-to-understand explanation. Also, if you pick a "brainliest" answer, it actually gives you points.
1/3 because u would do 1/3 and 1/8 next to each other 1x3 so 1/8 equals 3 then we do 1x8 and that equals 8 so 1/3 equals 8 then u conpare them 8>3 so 1/3>1/8
