Question

Assume the hours of service rules limit a commercial driver No more than 50 hours of driving In a 6 day period With no hour limitations on a single day Assume you have driven 10 hours a day for five days in a row What would be the maximum hours you could drive on the sixth day ?

Answer 1

0 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have driven 10 hours a day for five days, the total number of hours driven will be calculated as 10 times 5, so:

10 hours x 5 days = 50 hours

It means that those five days you drive 50 hours which is the maximum number of hours in a 6 day period, so on the sixth day you can't drive.

Therefore, the maximum number of hours that you could drive on the sixth day is 0 hours.
