    1 hour = 4.78 yards

    Rewrite:

    4.78 yards = 1 hour

    Find 1 yard:

    4.78 yards = 1 hour

    1 yard = 1 : 4.78

    1 yard = 0.209 hour

    FInd 119.5 yards:

    1 yard = 0.209 hour

    119.5 yards = 0.209 x 119.5

    119.5 yards = 25 hours

    So it will take 25 hours for Jamie to finish painting.
