Aliyah worked for 5 hours and 30 minutes. How should she write that on her time card

She can write

5 1/2 hours or 5.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

The problem with writing time is that there are two systems.

The decimal system is based on powers of 10, while the time system is based on 60.

Amelia cannot write 5.3 this would mean 5 3/10 hours.

30 minutes is 30 / 60 = 1/2=0.5 of an hour

She needs to show 5 full hours and 1 / 2 hour.

5 30/60 hours.

She can write

5 1/2 hours or 5.5 hours.
