If a person averages 10 hrs of tv viewing a week from age 12 to age 75 they will have spent 3.75 years viewing the television during that stage of his life. One part of the formula is to find out how many years a person has lived in the stage of their life. The other part of the formula is to convert the hours per week of viewing so that it is represented as a percentage. Once the conversion is made, multiply by the years lived during the stage of life to get your answer. Common knowledge perinent to formulation of a correct answer: There are 168 hours in a week. (24 hours a day multiplied by 7 days in a week) Solve for X, where: X =years in a persons life spent watching tv A = age (in years) at end of viewing cycle B = age (in years) at beginning of viewing cycle C = average hours per week spent viewing tv X=(A-B)(C/168) X=(75-12)(10/168) X=(63)(.05952381) X=3.75
