Neoli is a nurse who works each day from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at the blood collection centre. She takes 45 minutes for her lunch break. On average, it takes Neoli 15 minutes to collect each sample and record the patient's details. On average, how many patients can Neoli see each day?

Respuesta :

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

Neoli can see 4 patients in an hour. (60 min)/(15 min) = 4

In the 8-hour work day, with no break, she could see (8 h)×(4 patients/h) = 32 patients.

However, her lunch break takes a time that is equivalent to the time for 3 patients.

Neoli can see 32 -3 = 29 patients per day on average.
