To find out how many hours per day altogether were spent on watching TV and homework, we add the percentages for those two activities together: 8% (homework) + 13% (watching TV) = 21%
Since there are 24 hours in a day, we can calculate the total number of hours spent on watching TV and homework by multiplying 24 by 21%:
24 hours x 21% = 24 hours x 0.21 = 5.04 hours
Therefore, about 5 hours altogether were spent on watching TV and homework.
Grade 7 students were surveyed to determine how many hours per day they spent on various activities. The results are shown in the circle graph below. About how many hours per day altogether were spent on watching TV and homework?
A Pie Chart is titled "How Students Spend Their Time."• The pie chart slices are as follows:
• "Homework" at 8%
• "Watching TV" at 13%
• "Socializing" at 13%
• "School" at 25%
