Students are paired in teams for a group science project. The number of hours each student spends working on the group project are recorded on the bar chart below. If Paloma and Abdul are a team, and Ben and Min are a team, how many more hours did Paloma and Abdul spend working on the project combined than Ben and Min?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Paloma and Abdul combined spent 4 hours more working on the project than Ben and Min combined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as the bar chart is not included. The bar chart is therefore included before answering the question. Please, see the attached jpeg file for the bar chart.

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

From the bar chart, we have the number of hours each student spends working on the group project as follows:

Numbers of hours spent by Paloma = 21 hours

Numbers of hours spent by Adbul = 18 hours

Numbers of hours spent by Ben = 13 hours

Numbers of hours spent by Min = 22 hours

The number of hours each group spent working on the group project is calculated as follows:

Numbers of hours spent by Paloma and Abdul = Numbers of hours spent by Paloma + Numbers of hours spent by Paloma = 21 hours + 18 hours = 39 hours

Numbers of hours spent by Ben and Min = Numbers of hours spent by Ben + Numbers of hours spent by Min = 13 hours + 22 hours = 35 hours

Th number of hours Paloma and Abdul spend working on the project combined more than Ben and Min combined = Numbers of hours spent by Paloma and Abdul - Numbers of hours spent by Ben and Min = 39 hours - 35 hours = 4 hours

Therefore, Paloma and Abdul combined spent 4 hours more working on the project than Ben and Min combined.
