1st day: 1 1/2 hours
2nd day: half of first day = 1/2 * 1 1/2 hours
3rd day: 2 1/2 times as long as first day: 2 1/2 * 1 1/2 hours

1 1/2 + 1/2 * 1 1/2 + 2 1/2 * 1 1/2 =

= 3/2 + 1/2 * 3/2 + 5/2 * 3/2

= 3/2 + 3/4 + 15/4

= 6/4 + 3/4 + 15/4

= 24/4

= 6

Answer: She studied for 6 hours over the 3-day period.
