“But I don’t have time for school”, Eddie complained to the truant officer.
“I sleep 8 hours a day, which adds up to 122 days a year, there is no school on Saturdays and Sundays, which amounts to 104 days a year. We have 60 days of summer vacation. I need three hours a day for meals – that is more than 45 days a year. And I need at least two hours of recreation, which amounts up to 30 days a year. This totals 361 days. This leaves only 4 sick days, and that doesn’t even take into account the 7 school holidays. So, I have no time for school.” The truant officer scratched his head and looked baffled. What is wrong here?
