Reese Christian · Answer 1

A person drinks 4.52 cups per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

No of work days = 5

No of hours in day = 10

No of hours in week = 10*5 = 50 hours

Total cups consumed = 226

No of cups consumed per hour = Total no of cups / Total week hours

= 226/50

= 4.52 cups / hour

4.52 cups every hour
