5 x 40 = 200
200 x 3 = 600

Carin laughs 600 times every day due to the comedy shows.

Answer: Carlin laughs 600 times every day due to the comedy shows.

Explanation:

Given : During each minute of a comedy show, Carlin laughs 5 times.

Total shows she watches = 3

Length of each show = 40 minutes

Total length of the shows =(Total shows she watches) x (Length of each show)

= 3 x 40 units = 120 units

Number of times Carlin laugh every day due to the comedy shows = (Total length of the shows) x (Number of times she laughs in one minute )

= 120 x 5

= 600

Hence, Carlin laughs 600 times every day due to the comedy shows.
