Question

Ansgar is writing a novel. He writes seven days a week. On each of those days he write for at least 4 hours but never more than 8 hours. Last week, he wrote for exactly 46 hours. What is the maximum number of days on which he could have written for 8 hours?
A. 2 days
B. 3 days
C. 4 days
D. 5 days
E. 6 days

Answer 1

8*6>46 not good
8*5=40, add 6 days to make 46 hours.
So maximum is 5 days.

Answer 2

HM... I thought it's 4 x 7 = 28.

Answer 3

They want <i>maximum</i> of 8-hour days, so fill up with as many 8-hour days as possible.
