Drag the correct equation to determine how many 1/6-hour speeches could be given in a specific total time period:

A) Number of speeches = Total time × 6
B) Number of speeches = Total time ÷ (1/6)
C) Number of speeches = Total time × (1/6)
D) Number of speeches = Total time ÷ 6

Answer 1

To determine how many 1/6-hour speeches could be given in a specific total time period, divide the total time by the time it takes to give one speech (1/6 of an hour).

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many 1/6-hour speeches could be given in a specific total time period, we need to use the equation: Number of speeches = Total time ÷ (1/6). This equation represents dividing the total time by the time it takes to give one speech (1/6 of an hour). By doing this, we can find out how many speeches can be given in the given time period.
