Answer:

30 minutes or a 1/2 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Her art class is 1 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] hours long
  • She only joined [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] on an hour of the class

To find out how late she was, we subtract the time she was in class from the total class duration:

1 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] is the same as  [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

We need to know what this is: [tex]\frac{4}{3} -\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
LCM of 3 and 6 is 6

Since, [tex]\frac{4}{3} =\frac{8}{6}[/tex]
So, [tex]\frac{8}{6} -\frac{5}{6} =\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours
