Answer:
Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] (0.167) shirts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mike can stitch 7 shirts in 42 hours
to calculate the time that he takes to make 1 shirt, we have to divide 42 by 7.
He can stitch 1 shirt in = [tex]\frac{42}{7}[/tex] = 6 hours
Now we calculate the work done in one hour.
He can stitch in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] shirts or 0.167 shirts
Mike can stitch one shirt in 6 hours and in 1 hour he can stitch [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] shirts.
