Thomas Benz 1.2 hours exercising for 1/8 of that time jump ropes how many hours is Thomas been jumping rope?

To find out how many hours Thomas spent jumping rope, we need to calculate \( \frac{1}{8} \) of the total time he exercised.

Thomas exercised for 1.2 hours, and he spent \( \frac{1}{8} \) of that time jumping rope. 

So, the calculation is:

\[
\text{Time spent jumping rope} = \frac{1.2 \text{ hours}}{8} = 0.15 \text{ hours}
\]

Thomas spent **0.15 hours** jumping rope.

Would you like more details or have any questions? Here are 5 related questions:

1. How many minutes did Thomas spend jumping rope?
2. If Thomas increased his jumping rope time to \( \frac{1}{4} \) of his total exercise time, how many hours would that be?
3. How many seconds did Thomas spend jumping rope?
4. If Thomas exercised for 2 hours instead, how much time would he spend jumping rope at \( \frac{1}{8} \) of the time?
5. How would the time spent change if he exercised for 1.5 hours instead of 1.2 hours?

**Tip:** When converting fractions of time, always ensure the units are consistent for easier calculation.

Learn how to calculate the time Thomas spent jumping rope, which involves fractional calculations. Given that Thomas exercised for 1.2 hours and jumped rope for 1/8 of that time, find out the exact duration he spent jumping rope. Ideal for students in Grades 4-6.
