Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 7/12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of time Cheryl will have is the difference between time available and time spent on other tasks.

  8 1/2 - 2 1/4 - 2 2/3

  = 8 6/12 - 2 3/12 - 2 8/12

  = (8 -2 -2) +(6/12 -3/12 -8/12) = 4 - 5/12

  = 3 7/12

Cheryl will have 3 7/12 hours left for her interview.
