Answer 1

Answer: The data about the number of minutes per day is so confusing. I'll just answer it based on what I understood from the data provided:

Monday: 480 minutes
Tuesday: 450 minutes
Wednesday: 495 minutes
Thursday: 480 minutes
Friday: 300 minutes

We need to add up all the minutes worked for the week:
480 + 450 + 495 + 480 + 300 = 2,205 minutes

2,205 minutes / 60 minutes = 36.75 hours

36.75 hours is less than the maximum number of hours worked in a week which is 40 hours.

36.75 hours translates to 36 hours and 45 minutes of work for the week.
