One radio station has an average of 12 minutes of advertising per hour. The station broadcasts 14 hours per day. How much advertising time can it sell each week?
12 * 14 * 7 = ? minutes
To find out how much advertising time the radio station can sell each week, we need to calculate the total number of minutes of advertising per day, and then multiply that by the number of days in a week.
First, let's calculate the total number of minutes of advertising per day:
The radio station broadcasts 14 hours per day, and since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the station broadcasts a total of 14 x 60 = 840 minutes per day.
Since the average advertising time per hour is 12 minutes, the station has 12 x 840 = 10,080 minutes of advertising per day.
Now, let's calculate the total number of minutes of advertising per week:
Since there are 7 days in a week, the station can sell a total of 10,080 x 7 = 70,560 minutes of advertising time each week.
Therefore, the radio station can sell 70,560 minutes of advertising time each week.
