-A clock's battery is running low. Every 6 hours, its slows down by 1/2 hour. By how much did it slow
down in 1 hour?

Respuesta :

Hi!

If its running low and every six hours it slows down half an hour, we need to divide 6  from 1/2 (or in another form if you have a regular calculator, 0.5).

6 divided by 1/2 is 12 (or , in decimal form).

So your answer would be: It will slow down 12 minutes every hour.

Hope this helps!
