Answer:

181.5 hours

Explanation:

Here is the complete question: For 22 days I worked 8 and 1/4 hours each day. How many hours did I work for this month?

Given: Each day, working hour is
8(1)/(4)

Working day in a month= 22 days.

First converting working hours, from fraction to decimal.


8(1)/(4) = (4* 8+1)/(4)

=
(33)/(4)= 8.25\ hours

∴ working hours= 8.25 hours.

Now, calculating the number hours did he work in this month.

We know, he worked for 22 days in this month.

Number of hours in this month=
22* 8.25\ h= 181.5\ hours

Hence, 181.5 hours did he work for this month.
