Question

Mr Adams worked 78 hours during his six-day work week if he worked the same number of hours every day, how many hours did he work in four days?

Answer 1

Mr Adams worked for 52 hours in four days.

Explanation:

To get 52, you divide 78 and 6 and get 13. 13 is how many hours he worked a day. Since we need to find out how many hours he worked for 4 days, we add 13 4 times. If we add, the equation would look like this: 13+13+13+13=52. We can multiply also since it's easier. If we multiply our equation would be 13×4. Therefore, Mr Adams worked 52 hours in four days. Hope this helped
