Answer:

0.75(3/4) part of the room

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we can express the given data mathematically as

John can paint 0.5room in 2/3 hours

let the part of the room he can paint in an hour be x

so

if he takes 2/3 hours to paint 0.5 room

then he will take 1 hour to paint x

cross multiply we have

x= 0.5/2/3

x=0.5*3/2

x= 1.5/2

x=0.75 part of the room

75/100= 15/20=3/4 part
