Q. To get ready for school, Traci spent

\frac{1}{20}

of an hour getting dressed and

\frac{1}{10}

of an hour doing her hair. What is the total amount of time she spent getting ready?

\newline

Give your answer in simplest form.

Calculate time spent dressing: Calculate the time Traci spent getting dressed. $\newline$ $(\frac{1}{20})$ of an hour = $\frac{1 \text{ hour }}{20}$ = $0.05$ hour
Calculate time doing hair: Calculate the time Traci spent doing her hair. $\newline$ $(1/10)$ of an hour = $1$ hour / $10$ = $0.1$ hour
Find total time getting ready: Add the time spent getting dressed and the time spent doing her hair to find the total time spent getting ready. $\newline$ Total time = $0.05$ hour + $0.1$ hour = $0.15$ hour
Convert total time to minutes: Convert the total time spent into minutes, since the answer should be in simplest form and typically time spent in such activities is expressed in minutes. $\newline$ $0.15$ hour $*$ $60$ minutes/hour $=$ $9$ minutes
