During a given week A programmer spends 1/4 of his time preparing flow chart, 3/8 of his time coding and the rest of the time in debugging the programs. If he works 48 hours during the week , how many hours did he spend debugging the program.

• programmer takes 1/4*48=12 hrs a week to make flowchrt
  same way.....18 hrs a week for codin...
  so....for debugging=48-(12+18)=18 hrs

• its 18 ...
  48 - ( (1/4)*48 + (3/8)*48 )=18

• ans:18=48-30
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
• 1/4+3/8+X=1
  X=3/8
  3/8*48=18

• Flow chat = 1/4
  Coding = 3/8
  Time = 48 hrs
  debugging = ?
  
  So here he spent a total of 5/8 hrs (1/4 +3/8) in Flow chart and Coding.
  Remaining is 3/8 ( 1-5/8)
  
  Therefore (3/8)*48 = 18 hrs
  
  Therefore he spent 18hrs in Debugging.
