To find out how many hours a tiger sleeps in 7 weeks, we first need to calculate the total number of hours in 7 weeks:
-
There are 7 days in a week, so there are: \( 7 \text{ weeks} \times 7 \text{ days/week} = 49 \text{ days} \)
-
Each day has 24 hours, so: \( 49 \text{ days} \times 24 \text{ hours/day} = 1176 \text{ hours} \)
-
A tiger sleeps between 18 to 20 hours a day. Therefore, we need to calculate the sleep hours for 49 days:
-
Minimum sleep (18 hours/day): \( 18 \text{ hours/day} \times 49 \text{ days} = 882 \text{ hours} \)
-
Maximum sleep (20 hours/day): \( 20 \text{ hours/day} \times 49 \text{ days} = 980 \text{ hours} \)
Thus, a tiger will sleep between 882 to 980 hours in 7 weeks.
The correct response is: 882 to 980 hours.
