Question

Miley plays 1/2 of the song in 1/16 of a minute how much time will it take her to play the entire song

8 Minutes
1/8 of a minute
1/32 of a minute
2/18 of a minute ​

Answer 1

1/2 of the song can be played in 1/16min

• Total song halfs =1/1/2=2

Total time in min:-

• 2×1/16
• 1/8min
• 0.125min

Answer 2

`\sf (1)/(8)\:of\:a\:minute`

Explanation:

To find how many minutes it will take Miley to play the entire song (whole song), we need to multiply the time it takes for half the song to play by 2, since there are 2 halves in one whole.

Therefore, if it takes
`\sf (1)/(16)` of a minute to play half the song, then:

`\textsf{Time to play whole song}=\sf (1)/(16) * 2=(2)/(16)=(1)/(8)\:of\:a\:minute`
