1. you have to figure out what 3/4 of Ella's time is. [tex]1 \frac{3}{5} = \frac{8}{5} [/tex] (You find that out by multiplying 5x1. Then add 3.) 2. Convert the fractions into decimals. (This will help make it easier when dividing.) [tex] \frac{8}{5} = 8 \div 5 = 1.6[/tex] [tex] \frac{3}{4} = 3 \div 4 = .75[/tex] 3. Next you are going to divide 1.6 by .75 [tex]1.6 \div .75 = 2.13[/tex] 4. Now multiple 2.13 by 5. [tex]2.13 \times 5 = 10.65[/tex] Answer is 10
