Question

Nicole is playing a video game where each round lasts 3/44 of an hour. She has scheduled 3 3/4 hours to play the game. How many rounds can Nicole play

Answer 1

Let's not think about the problem, let's think about the fractions and dividing. We're are trying to find how many sets of 3/44 are in 3 3/4. We need to divide. Using keep change and flip, we can divide successfully.
Let's make sure the first fraction is improper.
15/4÷3/44=?
Keep, Change, and Flip.
15/4×44/3
660/12
Let's simplify.
55.
So Nicole can play 55 rounds.
