Question

In his free time, Gary spends 10 hours per week on the Internet and 14 hours per week playing video games. If Gary has five hours of free time per day, approximately what percent of his free time is spent on the Internet and playing video games?

Answer 1

Convert Gary's amount of free time per day (5 hours) to per week by multiplying it with 7 (as there are 7 days in a week). The operation gives an answer of 35 hours. The percent of his free time spent on the Internet (I) is,

I = (14 hours / 35 hours) x 100% = 40%

and that on playing video games (G) is,

G = (8 hours / 35 hours) x 100% = 22.86%
