Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex] hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Julie spent [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] of an hour running and [tex]\dfrac{5}{6}[/tex] of an hour swimming.
To find how much time longer she swam than run we need to subtract the swimming time from the running time, we have
[tex]\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{5-2(2)}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{5-4}{6}\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]
Therefore , we can say that she swam [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex] hour longer than run.
