Question

The difference in hours between full-timers and the part-timers who work 4hrs a day is 2 working hours. How many hours per day do full-timers work?

 

 

Answer 1

Unless I'm missing something here, it would either be 6 or 2 hours. The part-timers work 4 hours a day which is 2 hours different from what the full-timers do. From a purely mathematical standpoint, it isn't specifically stated whether full-timers work more or less daily than part-timers do, although the logical assumption would be that they work more. (However, having worked for a number of government departments, I personally wouldn't rule anything out.)
