Jamie’s father has asked him to paint the fence around their home .if their home is 119.5 yards long, and jaime can paint an average of 4.78 yards of the fence per hour ,how many hours will it take for jamie to finish painting the fence ?

1 hour = 4.78 yards
Rewrite:
4.78 yards = 1 hour

Find 1 yard:
4.78 yards = 1 hour
1 yard = 1 ÷ 4.78
1 yard = 0.209 hour

FInd 119.5 yards:
1 yard = 0.209 hour
119.5 yards = 0.209 x 119.5
119.5 yards = 25 hours

So it will take 25 hours for Jamie to finish painting.
