Jose is planning a 2-day nonstop Independence Day tribute on his radio show. If each person can give a 4-minute tribute, how many tributes can Jose play?

Respuesta :

To answer this item, we simply have to use the proper conversion factors and dimensional analysis. 

Note that in a day, there are 24 hours which has 60 minutes in it each. Calculating for the total number of minutes.

     number of minutes = (2 days)(24 hour/day)(60 minutes/hour)
        number of minutes = 2880 minutes

Then, divide the answer by the duration of each tribute
    
    number of tributes = (2880 minutes)/ (4 minutes/tribute) 
     number of tributes = 720 tributes

Hence, the answer is 720 tributes
