Maria has to spend 5 1/2
hours to finish her community service program in a community health clinic. Last week, she was able to spend 3 3/4
hours. Which equation can be used to determine the number of hours, h
, that Maria still needs to spend to complete her service program? (1 point)
Responses
h + 3 3/4 = 5 1/2
h + 5 1/2 = 3 3/4
h − 3 3/4 = 5 12
h − 5 1/2 = 3 3/4
The correct equation that can be used to determine the number of hours Maria still needs to spend is:
h + 3 3/4 = 5 1/2
