At the South Pole there is no sunshine for 182 days every year, and at the North pole the same applies for 176 days per year. What total would you have if you were to combine these two figures.

Question

A 359 days a year
B 358 days a year
C 357 days a year
D 335 days a year

I think B but am I missing something? Is this a trick question as I'm learning about equations and operations using real numbers. This seems to me like just a basic addition but please can someone let me know if that's not the case.

Answer 1

I don't think you're missing anything. Your answer is correct.

Answer 2

thanks!
