Question

Your crew can pave two driveways in a day. You work five days per week but take off 2 weeks each year for holiday and vacation. How many driveways could your crew pave in a year?

Answer 1

500

Explanation:

Crew can pave 2 driveways in 1 day.

Thus, crew can pave
`2*5=10` driveways in 1 week (5 days work week).

In total there are 52 weeks in a year. But 2 weeks in a year are for vacation, so 50 weeks in total for a year.

Thus in 50 weeks @ 10 driveways per week, the crew can pave:

`50*10=500` driveways.

So, the crew can pave 500 driveways in a year.
