Wyatt Marsh · Answer 1

The answer is 9/16

there are two ways you can get this

take 3/4 times 3/4 to get 9/16

or

3/4 of an hour = 45 min and 3/4 of 45 min = 33.75 min and 33.75/60 (minutes in an hour) = 9/16

Kelsie Conway · Answer 2

3/4 of 60 minutes is 45 minutes. Then if they played dodge ball 3/4 (75%) of that time the answer is: 3/4 (75%) of 45 minutes = 33.75 minutes. Then 33.75 minutes divided by 60 minutes = 0.5625 (56.25%) of 60 minutes playing dodge ball. Liv219 has already given you the answer in fraction form.
