For how many years could this policy be continued before exactly the same program would have to be repeated? (Assume there are 365 days in a year. Round your answer up to the nearest whole number,) years

Answer 1

SOlution:-
(a) There are 45 ways.

=> 9*5 = 45

(b) n = (9*5*32) = 1440 days

Number of years = 1440/365 = 3.94 (1 year = 365 days)

= 4 years.
