On Monday a team of street sweepers cleaned 3/4 of the city block Tuesday the team cleaned one fourth as many Block says on Monday how many blocks did the street sweepers clean on Tuesday?

To find how many blocks the street sweepers cleaned on Tuesday, we need to calculate one-fourth of the blocks cleaned on Monday.

1. On Monday, the street sweepers cleaned \( \frac{3}{4} \) of a city block.

2. On Tuesday, the team cleaned one-fourth as many blocks as they did on Monday. So, we multiply the number of blocks cleaned on Monday by \( \frac{1}{4} \).

\[
\text{Blocks cleaned on Tuesday} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{16}
\]

Thus, the street sweepers cleaned \( \frac{3}{16} \) of a city block on Tuesday.

1. If the team cleaned \( \frac{1}{2} \) of the block on Monday, how many blocks did they clean on Tuesday with the same rule?
2. How much of the city block was cleaned in total by the end of Tuesday?
3. If the team continues the same cleaning pattern for the next day, how many blocks would they clean on Wednesday?
4. What is the fraction of the city block remaining after Tuesday?
5. How many days will it take to clean the entire block if they reduce by half each day?

**Tip:** Multiplying fractions means multiplying both the numerators and denominators to get the final fraction.
