Some <em>possible answers</em> are:

Three 8-hour shifts; four 6-hour shifts; six 4-hour shifts.

Explanation:

We want factors of 24 for the shifts, since the shifts cannot overlap. The factors of 24 include:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

A 1-hour shift does not make much sense; most employers will also not use a 2-hour or 3-hour shift. Restaurants typically do not use 12-hour shifts either, and employers do not use 24-hour shifts either. This leaves 4, 6, and 8.

If we use 4-hour shifts, we would have 24/4 = 6 of these shifts.

If we use 6-hour shifts, we would have 24/6 = 4 of these shifts.

If we use 8-hour shifts, we would have 24/8 = 3 of these shifts.

Mr. Noel borrowed money from his cousin at a rate of 10% simple interest. After 1 year, $440
Alborosie

Answer:

<h2>$400</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the simple interest expressed as;

Simple Interest = Principal * rate * time/100

Note that the principal is the amount he originally borrowed

I = PRT/100 ............ 1

Amount paid off A = Principal+Interest

A = P+I ............ 2

From equation 2; I = A-P......... 3

Substitute equation 3 into 1;

A-P = PRT/100

Given A = $440, R = 10%, Time = 1year

Substitute the given parameters into the resulting equation;

440 - P = P*10*1/100

440-P = 10P/100

440-P = 0.1P

440 = 0.1P+P

440 = 1.1P

Divide through by 1.1;

1.1P/1.1 = 440/1.1

P = $400

<em>Hence the amount Mr Noel originally borrow is $400</em>
