For an important test, Juan studied for 2 h 20 min, while Ken studied for two thirds of an hour. What percent of Ken's study time was Juan's? Will give brainliest stars and thx if the answer is right

Explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hours = 120 minutes (multiply both sides by 2)

2 hrs + 20 min = 120 min + 20 min (add 20 min to both sides)

2 hrs, 20 min = 140 min

Juan studied for 140 min

Ken studied for 2/3 of an hour, so he studied for (2/3)*60 = 120/3 = 40 min

We see that Juan studied more than Ken, so that must mean Juan's study time as a percentage of Ken's study time is over 100%

This is because

and so on

We divide Juan's time by Ken's time to get: 140/40 = 3.5 = 350%

350% of Ken's study time was Juan's study time.

In other words, if we take 350% of the 40 min figure, then we get 3.5*40 = 140 which represents Juan's study time.

If your teacher asked the reverse of this, and instead asked "what percent of Juan's study time was Ken's?", then the answer would be 40/140 = 0.2857 = 28.57% approximately.

the answer is b
