After a work sampling study was completed, it was found that 20% of a coder's time was devoted to pulling records for physicians with missing diagnoses. How many minutes of a 7-hour day are taken up with this activity?
After a work sampling study was completed, it was found that 20% of a coder's time was devoted to pulling records for physicians with missing diagnoses. How many minutes of a 7-hour day are taken up with this activity?
To find out how many minutes of a 7-hour day are taken up with the activity of pulling records, we first need to convert hours into minutes. 7 hours is equal to 7 * 60 = 420 minutes. Since 20% of the coder's time is devoted to this activity, we calculate 20% of 420 minutes. This is done by multiplying 420 by 0.20, which equals 84 minutes. Therefore, 84 minutes of a 7-hour day are taken up with this activity.
(7 x 60 )= (420 x .20) = 84
(B) Convert 7 hours to minutes =7*60 =420 420 * 20/100 = 84
7 x 0.2 x 60 = 84
