    A local radio station sells time slots for programs in 20-minute intervals. If the station operates 24 hours per day, what is the total number of 20-minute time slots the radio station can sell for Thursday and Friday?

    Thursday and Friday = 2 days
    With 24 hours per day, we have 24 * 2 = 48 hours for Thursday and Friday.

    Since 20 minutes is 1/3 of an hour, then we have 3 20-minute time slots per hour.

    3 20-minute time slots * 48 hours = 144 total 20-minute time slots
