Question

Your delivery runs took 7 hours 12 minutes on Monday,6 hours 46 minutes on Wednesday and 6 hours 53 minutes on Friday. What was the average time for a delivery run?

Answer 1

7 hours + 6 hours + 6 hours
=19 hours
12 minutes + 46 minutes + 53 minutes
=111 minutes
=1 hour 51 minutes

19 hours + 1 hour and 51 minutes is 20 hours and 51 minutes. This is the total time.

Average time = total time/number of deliveries

(20 and 51/60) divided by 3
=6.95 hours
= 6 hours and 57 minutes

Answer 2

5 hours 37 minutes

Explanation:

Time taken on Monday = 7 hours 12 minutes

Time taken on Tuesday = 6 hours 46 minutes

Time taken on Wednesday = 6 hours 53 minutes

Total time taken = 7 hours 12 minutes + 6 hours 46 minutes + 6 hours 53 minutes

Total time taken = 15 hours 111 minutes

Average time =
`(Total Time Taken)/(3)`

=
`(15 hours 111minutes)/(3)`

= 5 hours 37 minutes

Hence , the correct answer is 5 hours 37 minutes
