Since she gave you a .2 or 2/10's or 1/5th - I guess we're really looking at.... lets see:
365 days in a year / 12 months = 30.4 days per month.
30.4 average days in the month / 5 (or a fifth) = 6 .08 days.
6.08 days x 1 fifth = 6.08 days.
7 months and 6.08 days = .6 parts of a year.
How many hours in .08 parts of a day?
And what if it's a leap year?
Without Siri, cheater. Lol. -

Wow this guy has gone beyond limits of stupid at Swift. Some DM is cashing in big time already early in the year. The have big office pools with various categories, DM with the highest mileage board to produce the most miles in a year,
DM board with the most truck uptime
and more nefarious categories like
DM with the most wrecks on their board
DM with with the stupidest wreck on their board *WINNER 2017* Walmart Low Clearance DriverPete jockey and rank Thank this. -
How many hours in 0.8 day is easy. 0.8*24=19.2 hours. 0.2hrs = 12 min. So 19hr and 12 min. So, seven months, six days, nineteen hours and twelve minutes in 0.6 of a year. - this is wrong because I'm dumb.
Since I'm really tired and just noticed that I'm supposed to be doing the math for 0.08 of a day and not 0.8.. let's just do that too.
It'll be easier to convert 24hr into minutes for this calculation. So, 24*60=1440. 1440*0.08=115.2. Which is one hour fifty five minutes and twelve seconds.
So, seven months, six days, one hour fifty five minutes and twelve seconds.
Now for the leap year, just do the same math as you, except with 366 days. So,
366/12= 30.5
30.5 / 5 = 6.1
0.1 of a day is 2.4 hours. Or two hours and twenty four minutes. So, seven months, six days, two hours and twenty four minutes.
Of course the problem with all these calculations is that we're assuming that we can just average the months. When in reality, depending on when you start the calculation, the outcome changes a bit. From January 1st as day 1, 0.6 of a year will be
And I'm loaded. Time to drive.G13Tomcat Thanks this. -
Ha ha, trainer.
When bad stuff happens you just keep going so you don't get stuck. If you get stuck, they have to call out a tow, you don't want that.
