Question

Sarah and Gabriela are at a soccer camp. The length of a soccer practice is 2/3 hour. The coaches have set aside 8 hours for soccer practice. How many soccer practices can the coaches have?

Answer 1

Answer:

12 soccer practices

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Soccer practice = 2 / 3 hour

We have 8 hours

8 / 2/3

multiply the top and bottom by 3 to get rid of the 3

8 * 3 = 24

2/3 * 3 = 2

24 / 2 = 12

Answer 2

Answer:

One way to answer your problem is by using proportions, and the following method can be done:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{x}{8}$

Then that reduces to the following:

$\frac{8}{\frac{2}{3}}=x=12$

So the answer would be 12 practices.
