Paul drinks 6oz of formula every four hours and 30 minutes how many oz can he drink in 24 hours

Question

6 fluid ounces every 4 hours 30 minutes. 

Answer 1

It is a unitary method question. Let us convert 4 hrs and 30 mins to hours.

 

30 mins = 30/60 = 0.5 hr

So 4 hr 30 mins = 4+0.5 hr =4.5 hr

In 4.5 hr Paul drinks 6 oz formula

so in 1 hr, Paul drinks 6/4.5 oz formula

so in 24 hrs Paul drinks (6x24)/4.5 oz formula = 32 oz formula
