To find the total number of work hours \( c \) when \( w = 7 \) (the number of hours spent in meetings), we start with the information given:
Kenny spends 47 hours writing code and \( w \) hours in meetings. The total number of work hours \( c \) is the sum of these two activities:
\[
c = 47 + w
\]
Now, substituting \( w = 7 \) into the equation:
\[
c = 47 + 7
\]
\[
c = 54
\]
So, the value of \( c \) when \( w = 7 \) is \( \boxed{54} \).
