To find the total number of patients the doctor sees in one year, you can use the following steps:

  1. Calculate the number of patients seen in one week: \[ \text{Patients per week} = \text{Patients per day} \times \text{Days per week} = 24 \times 3 = 72 \]

  2. Calculate the number of patients seen in one year: \[ \text{Patients per year} = \text{Patients per week} \times \text{Weeks per year} = 72 \times 52 \]

  3. Perform the multiplication: \[ 72 \times 52 = 3744 \]

Therefore, the doctor sees 3744 patients in one year.
