Question

A salesman in the cloth shop works $10\frac{1}{2}$ hours each day. How many hours does he work in a week?

• A. $63\frac{1}{2}$
• B. $81\frac{1}{2}$
• C. $73\frac{1}{2}$
• D. $89\frac{1}{2}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $73\frac{1}{2}$

No. of hours in a day = $10\frac{1}{2}$ = 21/2
No. of days in a week = 7
So, total working hours in a week = 7 x 21/2 = 147/2 = 73(½) hrs.

So, the correct answer is B.
