A table shows the number of hours spent on different activities in a week: Work (40 hours), Sleep (56 hours), Leisure (20 hours), and Exercise (14 hours). How many hours are unaccounted for? (2023)
Step 1: Determine the total number of hours in a week. There are 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week, so calculate 24 * 7.
Step 2: Calculate the total number of hours in a week, which is 168 hours.
Step 3: List the hours spent on each activity: Work (40 hours), Sleep (56 hours), Leisure (20 hours), and Exercise (14 hours).
Step 4: Add the hours spent on all activities together: 40 + 56 + 20 + 14.
Step 5: Calculate the total accounted hours, which is 130 hours.
Step 6: Subtract the total accounted hours from the total hours in a week: 168 - 130.
Step 7: The result is the number of unaccounted hours, which is 38.
