installations over the past week. If Crew One worked 10-, 9-, 11-, 12-, and 9-hour
days, Crew Two worked 9-, 12-, 12-,9-, and 9-hour days, and Crew Three worked
12-, 12-, 10-, 9-, and 11-hour days, how many total hours did the three crews work
for the week?

Answer 1

Answer: 156 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Crew One worked 10-, 9-, 11-, 12-, and 9-hours for the week. The total hours worked by Crew One will be:

= 10 + 9 + 11 + 12 + 9

= 51 hours.

Crew Two worked 9, 12, 12, 9 and 9 hours. The total hours worked by Crew Two for the week will be:

= 9 + 12 + 12 + 9 + 9

= 51 hours

Crew Three worked 12-, 12-, 10-, 9-, and 11-hour daily. The total hours worked by Crew Three for the week will be:

= 12 + 12 + 10 + 9 + 11

= 54 hours

The total hours worked by the three crews for the week will be:

= 51 hours + 51 hours + 54 hours

= 156 hours
