Marks: +1, -0

A local television station sells time slots for programs in 30-minute intervals. If the station operates 24 hours per day, every day of the week, what is the total number of 30-minute time slots the station can sell for Tuesday and Wednesday?

Your Answer:

Validate

Solution:

Since each day has a total of 24 hours of time slots available for the station to sell, there is a total of 48 hours of time slots available to sell on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Each time slot is a 30-minute interval, which is equal to a

1/2-

hour interval.
Therefore, there are a total of

{48\text "hours"}/{1/2\text "hours/time slot"}=96

time slots of 30 minutes for the station to sell on Tuesday and Wednesday
