Question

A 30-second advertisement for a new product is aired on T.V. every day for the month of June and on alternate days for the next 3 months. For how much time in all was it played in the four months? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

he was paid for 2.5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

1 month + 3/2 months

1 month+1.5 months

= 2.5 months

Answer 2

The advertisement was played for a total of 38 minutes.

Given:

Length of ad = 30 seconds

Length of time ad was played = Whole June + alt days of next 3 months

To find: Total run time of ad

Solution:

We are given that,

Length of time ad was played = Whole June + alt days of next 3 months

Now,

Number of days in June = 30

Number of days in the next 3 months = 31 + 31 + 30 = 92

⇒ Number of alternate days in the next 3 months = 92/2 = 46

⇒ Number of days the ad runs = 30 + 46 = 76

∴ Total run time of ad = (76 x 30) seconds = 38 minutes

⇒ The ad runs for a total of 38 minutes.
