Calculating Total Homework Hours for Math and Science

Step-by-Step Calculation of Homework Hours

To find out the total number of hours Kendra spent doing math and science homework combined, follow these steps:

Step 1: Review the Bar Graph

Look closely at Kendra's bar graph. Each bar represents a subject and the height of the bar indicates how many hours she spent on homework for that subject.

Step 2: Identify the Hours for Each Subject

Find the bars that represent math and science:

• Check the height of the math bar to determine how many hours Kendra spent.
• Check the height of the science bar to find out how many hours she spent on that subject.

Step 3: Add the Hours Together

Once you have the hours spent on math and science, add those two numbers together:

Total Hours = Hours Spent on Math + Hours Spent on Science

Step 4: Write Down the Total

The result will give you the combined total hours Kendra spent doing homework for both subjects.

For example, if Kendra spent 4 hours on math and 3 hours on science, you would calculate:

Total Hours = 4 + 3 = 7

This means Kendra spent a total of 7 hours doing math and science homework combined.

Final Reminder

Make sure to double-check the numbers on the graph to ensure accuracy before adding!
