No of hours  for 950 oil changes= 427.5 hours

Explanation:

Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company

1.Number of quarts for 1 oil change = 6.4 quarts of oil

Number of quarts for 960 oil changes= 6.4 quarts of oil *960= 6,144 quarts

2. Number of minutes for 1 oil change = 27 minutes

Number of minutes for 960 oil changes = 27 minutes*960= 25920 minutes

No of hours for 960 oil changes = 25920/60= 432 hours

3.Number of quarts for 1 oil change = 6.4 quarts of oil

Number of quarts for 950 oil changes= 6.4 quarts of oil *950= 6,080 quarts

Number of minutes for 1 oil change = 27 minutes

Number of minutes for 950 oil changes = 27 minutes*950= 25650 minutes

No of hours  for 950 oil changes= 25650/60= 427.5 hours
