Question

504 tons
week
=

tons
hour

Answer 1

To convert from tons per week to tons per hour, you'll divide the total tons by the number of hours in a week.

1 week = 7 days
1 day = 24 hours

So, the number of hours in a week is:

\[
7 \text{ days/week} \times 24 \text{ hours/day} = 168 \text{ hours/week}
\]

Now, to convert 504 tons per week to tons per hour, you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{tons per hour} = \frac{\text{tons per week}}{\text{hours per week}} = \frac{504 \text{ tons}}{168 \text{ hours}} \approx 3 \text{ tons/hour}
\]

Thus, 504 tons per week is approximately 3 tons per hour.
