Question

Jason spends 1/3 of each day sleeping.What is the total numbers of days that jason spend awake in 1 week?

Answer 1

Given the statement: Jason spends 1/3 of each day sleeping

Since, a day has 24 hours and

Jason spends each day
`(1)/(3)* 24 = 8 hours` in sleeping .

Remaining Jason spend awake each day, 24 - 8 = 16 hours.

In 1 day = Jason spend 16 hours in awake

then;

in 1 week(i.e, 7 days) =
`16 * 7 = 112 hours` spend in awake.

To find the total number of days Jason spend awake in 1 week.

Divide 112 hours by 24 we get;

`(112)/(24) = (14)/(3) =4(2)/(3)` days

therefore,
`4(2)/(3)` is the total number of day that Jason spend awake in 1 week.
