Question

Monika takes $\frac{1}{6}$ hour to walk to the playground and $\frac{1}{3}$ hour to walk from the playground to school. How much time does it take her to walk to the playground and then to school ?

• A. $\frac{2}{9}$ hour
• B. $\frac{1}{3}$ hour
• C. $\frac{1}{2}$ hour
• D. $\frac{2}{3}$ hour

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{1}{2}$ hour

Monika takes $\frac{1}{6}$ hour to walk to the playground.

And $\frac{1}{3}$ hour to walk from the playground to school.

She will take time to walk to the playground and then to school

$=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{3}$

$=\frac{1+2}{6}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$ hour

Hence, this is the answer.
