Solution

The correct option is D 6
Time of one joy ride = $\frac{3}{12}$ h

Alex has $\frac{3}{2}$ h to play.

Therefore, number of rides he can complete = $\frac{3}{2}$ $\div$ $\frac{3}{12}$

= $\frac{3}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{12}{3}$

= 6

Hence, he can complete 6 rides in the available time.

One joy ride lasts 3/12 h. Alex has 3/2 h to play. Find the number of rides he can complete in this time.

The correct option is D 6Time of one joy ride = 312 h Alex has 32 h to play. Therefore, number of rides he can complete = 32 ÷ 312 = 32 × 123 = 6 Hence, he can complete 6 rides in the available time.

The correct option is D 6

Alex has $\frac{3}{2}$ h to play.

Therefore, number of rides he can complete = $\frac{3}{2}$ $\div$ $\frac{3}{12}$

= $\frac{3}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{12}{3}$

= 6

Hence, he can complete 6 rides in the available time.
