Each of the 17 guinea pigs needs its cage cleaned. If it takes 1 hour to clean 4 cages, how many hours will it take to clean all 17 cages? It will take hours to clean all the cages.

Time taken to clean all 17 cages = 4.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Guinea pig cage = 17

Time taken to clean 4 cage = 1 hour

So,

Time taken to clean 1 cage = hour = 15 minutes

Therefore,

Time taken to clean 17 cages = 17 × 15 minutes = 255 minutes

= hours

= 4.25 hours

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
