Question

Neoli is a nurse who works each day from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at the blood collection centre. She takes 45 minutes for her lunch break On average. It takes Neoli 15 minutes to collect each sample and record the patient's details. On average, how many patients can Neoli see each day?

Answer 1

If it takes 15 minutes for 1 patient, that means she can do 4 patients in an hour. She works 8 hours, minus 45 minutes for lunch. So 7 hours * 4 patients/hour is 28 patients, plus 1 patient in the 15 minutes after lunch would be 29 patients each day
