Solution
The correct option is A (9 + 8) × 7 Rohan works for 9 hours and Seema works for 8 hours. So, we have to add them first.
9+8
So, Rohan and Seema together work(9 + 8) hours a day.
Next to find the total hours of work in a week, we have to multiply 7 with (9 + 8).
= (9 + 8) × 7
Rohan and Seema work for (9 + 8) × 7.
