A 882 to 980 hours

B 2.5 to 2.9 hours

C 630 to 700 hours

D 126 to 140 hours

Answer 1

To find the number of hours a tiger will sleep in 7 weeks, we can multiply the number of hours a tiger sleeps per day by the number of days in 7 weeks.

Since a tiger sleeps 18 to 20 hours a day:

Minimum number of hours a tiger will sleep in 7 weeks = 18 hours/day × 7 days/week × 7 weeks = 882 hours

Maximum number of hours a tiger will sleep in 7 weeks = 20 hours/day × 7 days/week × 7 weeks = 980 hours

Therefore, the answer is A: 882 to 980 hours.
