To find the average number of hours that John and Chris practice each day per week, we need to divide the total number of hours by the number of days in a week.
John's team practices 6 hours every 2 days. In a week (which consists of 7 days), John's team would practice for a total of (6 hours/2 days) * 7 days = 21 hours. Therefore, John practices for an average of 21 hours/7 days = 3 hours per day.
Chris's team practices 8 hours every 4 days. In a week, Chris's team would practice for a total of (8 hours/4 days) * 7 days = 14 hours. Therefore, Chris practices for an average of 14 hours/7 days = 2 hours per day.
So, the graph representing John would have a bar that is higher than the one representing Chris to show that John practices for more hours per day on average.
