Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:The number of hours Jin reads in 20 days is 39.8 hours.

The expression for the given situation is 0.75d + 1.24d.

What is an expression?

An expression is a combination of terms that are combined by using mathematical operations such as subtraction, addition, multiplication, and division.

In the given expression 0.75d + 1.24d, d is number of days.

Substitute d=20 in 0.75d + 1.24d, we get

0.75(20) + 1.24(20)

15+24.8

=39.8 hours

Hence, the number of hours Jin reads in 20 days is 39.8 hours
