Question

If Maria winks exactly 5 times every minute and she sleeps

Answer 1

Answer:

4800 times does Maria wink every  day.

Explanation:

Number of time Maria winks= 5 times in minute = 5 winks/min

Number of hours she sleeps in day = 8 hours

1 day = 24 hours

Number of hours when Maria is not sleeping = 24 hour - 8 hour = 16 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

16 hours = 16 × 60 min = 960 min

number of winks in 960  minutes:

$960 min\times 5 winks/min=4800 winks$

4800 times does Maria wink every  day.

Answer 2

First, we need to find the amount of winks in an hour, to simplify it so we can answer easier. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can multiply 5 by 60 to find the number of winks in an hour.

5*60=300

Now multiply 300 by 8.

300*8=2,400

She winks exactly 2,400 times per day.

Hope this helps!
