To find out how many days Katie was on holiday, we can calculate the difference between the departure date (29th July) and the return date (7th August), and then add 1 day to account for the first day.
Here's how you can do it:
1. Count the number of days in July from the departure date (29th July) until the end of the month (31st July). In this case, there are 3 days (29th, 30th, and 31st).
2. Count the number of days in August from the start of the month (1st August) until the return date (7th August). In this case, there are 7 days.
3. Add the numbers from steps 1 and 2 together to get the total number of days: 3 + 7 = 10.
4. Finally, add 1 day to account for the first day of the holiday: 10 + 1 = 11.
Therefore, Katie was on holiday for 11 days.
