Question

You plan to put anti-theft devices on each garment in your store. You have 950 garments and it takes an employee 30

seconds to tag a garment. How many hours will it take an employee to tag all garments?

Answer 1

7 hours and 55 minutes

Explanation:

950 (garments) X 30=28,500 seconds = 475 minutes = 7 hours and 55 minutes

Answer 2

7.9 hours required to tag all the garments

Explanation:

First ... how many seconds would be required to tag all the garments?

Multiply (950 garments) by (30 seconds / garment), obtaining 28,500 seconds.

Since 1 hour = 3600 seconds, we get:

(28,500 seconds)(1 hr) / (3600 seconds)

or

7.9 hours required to tag all the garments
