Mr. Clemens painted his barn for 3 and 4/5 hours in the morning. He painted the barn for 5 and 3/4 hours in the afternoon. How many more hours did Mr. Clemens paint the barn in the afternoon than in the morning?

1 19/20 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Subtraction operation

Hence:

The number rod hours Mr. Clemens painted the barn in the afternoon than in the morning is calculated as:

5 3/4 hours - 3 4/5 hours

5- 3 +( 3/4 - 4/5)

Lowest Common Denominator = 20

2 + (15 - 16/20)

2 + -1/20 hours

= 1 19/20 hours
