Frank receives 9 paychecks in 12 weeks. How many paychecks will he receive in 52 weeks?
he receives an average of 9/12 = 3/4 paychecks each week
so, in 52 weeks, that would be 3/4 * 52 = 42 paychecks
3/4 * 52 = 39 Paychecks.
To find out how many paychecks Frank will receive in 52 weeks, we can first calculate the average number of paychecks he receives per week.
We know that Frank receives 9 paychecks in 12 weeks. So, to find the average number of paychecks per week, we need to divide the total number of paychecks (9) by the total number of weeks (12).
The formula to calculate the average is:
Average = Total / Number of instances
Therefore,
Average number of paychecks per week = 9 / 12 = 0.75 paychecks per week (rounded to two decimal places)
Now, we can use this average to find the total number of paychecks Frank will receive in 52 weeks.
To calculate this, we multiply the average number of paychecks per week (0.75) by the total number of weeks (52).
Total number of paychecks in 52 weeks = 0.75 * 52 = 39 paychecks
Therefore, Frank will receive 39 paychecks in 52 weeks.
