At work, Elon takes a break 1/5​​ of each hour he works. He also takes a lunch break for 1/2​​ of an hour each day he works. Elo
Anton [14]

Answer:

h=50\ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h -----> the number of hours, Elon works during one 5​-day work week

we know that

12\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{12*2+1}{2}=\frac{25}{2}\ h

Elon’s break time must be equal to 1/2​​ of an hour multiplied by 5 days plus  1/5​​ multiplied by the total hours h

so

\frac{25}{2}=5(\frac{1}{2})+\frac{1}{5}h

Solve for h

Multiply by 10 both sides to remove the fraction

125=25+2h

2h=125-25

2h=100

h=50\ hours
