    Answer:

    20 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Method 1:

    (0.75)/(0.25)=(1)/(x)

    0.75*1.333333=1, so multiply 0.25 by 1.333333 to find the value of x!

    0.25*1.333333=0.33333, or one-third of an hour, or 20 minutes.

    Method 2:

    (0.75)/(0.25)=(1)/(x)

    Cross-multiply

    0.75x=0.25

    (0.25)/(0.75)=x

    x=0.33333 hours
