Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The operator's schedule repeats every 14 days (5 days of day shifts + 3 days of evening shifts + 2 days of day shifts + 4 days of evening shifts). To find the shift 79 days from now, divide 79 by 14 to find the number of complete cycles and the remainder. 79 divided by 14 equals 5 cycles with a remainder of 9 days. Since she is currently on day 3 of the 5-day day shift, 79 days from now will fall on the 2nd day of the 4-day evening shift cycle.
