    Answer:

    Hours slept = 6 hours

    Hours awake = 18 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Sasha got 1 hour of sleep for every 3 hours she was awake.

    So,

    This means:

    Slept : Awake = 1 : 3

    Total hours in a day = 24 hours

    Let

    Hours slept = 1x and hours awake = 3x

    Hence,

    1x + 3x = 24 hours

    4x = 24

    Divide both sides by 4

    x = 24 / 4

    x = 6

    So,

    Hours slept = 1(6) = 6 hours

    Hours awake = 3(6) = 18 hours

    \rule[225]{225}{2}

    Hope this helped!
