3(1+2)
To calculate the total number of hours Jesse exercises in 3 weeks, we need to find the sum of the hours he spends exercising on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
First, let's calculate the total number of hours Jesse spends exercising on Tuesdays in 3 weeks. Since there are 7 days in a week, Jesse exercises once every Tuesday for 1 hour. Hence, in 3 weeks (21 days), he exercises for 1 hour each Tuesday.
Therefore, Jesse spends 1 hour x 21 days = 21 hours exercising on Tuesdays in 3 weeks.
Next, let's calculate the total number of hours Jesse spends exercising on Saturdays in 3 weeks. Similarly, he spends 2 hours each Saturday.
Hence, in 3 weeks (21 days), he exercises for 2 hours each Saturday.
Therefore, Jesse spends 2 hours x 21 days = 42 hours exercising on Saturdays in 3 weeks.
To find the total number of hours Jesse gets in 3 weeks, add the number of hours spent on Tuesdays and Saturdays:
Total hours = Hours spent on Tuesdays + Hours spent on Saturdays
Total hours = 21 hours + 42 hours
Total hours = 63 hours
Therefore, Jesse gets a total of 63 hours of exercise in 3 weeks.
