The value of h, number of hours it will take him to pick 6 bushels is 5 3/7 hours

How to solve equation

7/8h + 1 1/4 = 6

where,

  • h = number of hours it will take him

7/8h + 1 1/4 = 6

  • Subtract 1 1/4 from both sides

7/8h = 6 - 1 1/4

7/8h = 6 - 5/4

7/8h = (24-5)/ 4

7/8h = 19/4

  • divide both sides by 7/8

h = 19/4 ÷ 7/8

= 19/4 × 8/7

= 19 × 2/7

= 38/7

= 5 3/7 hours
