Answer:

The total time spent on both fishing and swimming is 3 3/4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in knowing the total time spent on fishing and swimming.

From the question, we are made to know that the time spent fishing is 1 1/4 hours or simply 5/4 hours.

Then they spent two times of this time swimming.

The time spent swimming is thus 5/4 * 2 = 5/2 hours

So the total time spent on both swimming and fishing will be;

5/4 hours + 5/2 hours = (5 + 10)/4 = 15/4 = 3 3/4 hours
