Question

How many hours per week does hector exercise

Answer 1

To find out how many hours per week Hector exercises, we need to divide the total number of hours he exercises (11 1/2) by the number of weeks (4).

11 1/2 hours / 4 weeks = 2 7/8 hours per week

Therefore, Hector exercises about 2 7/8 hours per week.
