The afternoon classes in a school begin at 1 PM and end at 3:52 PM. There are 4 class periods
with 4 minutes between classes. How many
minutes are there in each class period?

I answered this incorrectly the first time because I read the numbers wrong I am sorry listen to the person below me

39 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so first I found the difference between 1pm and 3:52 pm and it was 2 hours and 52 minutes

So then I took the 4 class periods and times it by for to see to total of minutes between class periods which was 16

Then I subtracted 16 for 52 to get 36 minutes

So now the time for class periods was 2.36 minutes

So I took that numbers and divided it by the 4 class periods and got 39 minutes.

Wow those are short class periods, mine are normally like an hour, but anyways hope this helped :). If I'm wrong please correct me. :)

correct

step-by-step explanation:

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.
