Answer 1

Oliver completed his training work in 50.25 hours

Explanation:

we know that

`1\ day= 24\ hours`

`1\ hour=60\ minutes`

we have

`2\ days, 2\ h,\ and\ 15\ min`

Convert days to hours

`2\ days=2(24)=48\ hours`

Convert minutes to hour

`15\ min=15(1/60)=1/4=0.25\ h`

so

`2\ days, 2\ h,\ and\ 15\ min=(48)+(2)+(0.25)=50.25\ h`

therefore

Oliver completed his training work in 50.25 hours
