Toni practices the piano 6 days a week. Over 2 days, how many hours has Toni practiced?

Answer :

Toni practiced 6 hours in a week, over 4 days, her average daily practice time would be [tex]\( \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2} \)[/tex] hours per day, or 1.5 hours per day.

To find out how many hours Toni practiced over 4 days, we can use the information provided in the table for one week.

If Toni practices 6 days a week, and over one week she practices a total of x hours, then her average daily practice time would be [tex]\( \frac{x}{6} \)[/tex] hours per day.

Given that over 2 days, Toni practiced [tex]\( \frac{1}{2} \)[/tex] hour per day, the total practice time over 2 days is [tex]\( 2 \times \frac{1}{2} = 1 \)[/tex] hour. So, if [tex]\( \frac{x}{6} = 1 \)[/tex] hour, then x = 6 hours.

Now, if Toni practiced 6 hours in a week, over 4 days, her average daily practice time would be [tex]\( \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2} \)[/tex] hours per day, or 1.5 hours per day.
