Question

a bus driver makes 15 trips around the city each day. each trip takes 32 minutes. how many hours does the bus driver spend driving daily?

Answer 1

Number of trips = 15 trips
Time for each trip = 32 minutes

Total time spent driving daily = 15 trips × 32 minutes/trip

convert the total time from minutes to hours:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Total time in hours = (15 trips × 32 minutes/trip) / 60 minutes/hour

Total time in hours = (480 minutes) / 60 minutes/hour

Total time in hours = 8 hours

So, the bus driver spends 8 hours driving daily.
