Question

It takes Planet Folger 24 hours to complete a full rotation. It takes Planet Keurig approximately 58 days, 15 hours, and 30 minutes to complete a full rotation. How many hours does it take Keurig to complete a full rotation? Show your work using the correct conversion factors.

Answer 1

1 day = 24 hours
58 days = (24)(58) = 1392 hours
60 mins = 1 hour
30 mins = 30/60 hour = 1/2 hour
Total hours Keurig takes to complete a full rotation = 1392 + 15 + 1/2 = 1407(1/2) hours.
