Answer:

t = 100 minutes, or 1 hr, 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

5/15 of 1 hour is the same as 5/15 of 60 minutes, which is 20 minutes

you can set up a proportion of hw completed / minutes = hw completed / min:

(1/5 ÷ 20) = (1 ÷ t)    we use '1' to indicate all homework (or 100% of hw) and 't' to indicate time required

cross-multiply to get:

20 = 5/t

t = 100 minutes, or 1 hr, 40 minutes
