To determine the percentage of time the worker spent traveling, we need to compare the total number of hours spent traveling to the total number of recorded hours.

In Week 1, the worker spent a total of 42 hours, which includes 4 hours of sick leave and 6 hours of travel. Therefore, the worker spent 42 - (4 + 6) = 32 hours on work-related activities.

In Week 2, the worker spent a total of 46 hours, which includes 5 hours of travel. So, the worker spent 46 - 5 = 41 hours on work-related activities.

Now, let's calculate the percentage:

For Week 1: Travel time / Recorded time * 100
= 6 / 42 * 100
= 14.29%

For Week 2: Travel time / Recorded time * 100
= 5 / 46 * 100
= 10.87%

Therefore, the worker spent approximately 14.29% of Week 1 and 10.87% of Week 2 traveling.
