Question

Me. Horans paints 0.4 of his fence in 70 minutes how long will it take him to paint the whole fence?

Answer 1

0.4 is equivalent to 40% (out of 100%) so you do 100 divided by 40, which is 2.5. so you multiply 70 by 2.5 which is 175. he spent 175 minutes painting the fence (2 hours and 55 mins)
