Suppose it takes 180 credits to get a baccalaureate degree. You accumulate credit at the rate of one credit per quarter for each hour that the class meets per week. For instance, a class that meets three hours each week of the quarter will count for three credits. In addition, suppose that you spend 2.5 hours of study outside of class for each hour in class. A quarter is 10 weeks long. How many total hours, including time spent in class and time spent studying out of class, must you invest to get a degree?

Answer :

Fichohgo

The total time to be invested to get a degree would be 630 hours

Total credits required = 180 credits

Number weeks In a quarter = 10 weeks

Number of credit earned per hour = 1 credit

To earn a degree :

Number of credits required per week :

180 / 10 = 18 credits per week

Since, credit is earned at a rate of 1 per hour ; then ;

Number of class hours per week = 18 hours per week.

This means 180 class hours is required.

For every class hour ; 2.5 hours is used for outside class study

Hence, Total outside class study hours will be :

(2.5 hours × 180 hours) = 450 hours

Therefore,

Total hours that would be invested :

(total outside class hours + tt’otal class hours)

(450 + 180) = 630 hours
