How often did you say to yourself:

"I have been playing guitar now for 3 months, and yet I feel I am not making any progress"

Have you really been playing for three months?

Let's find out!

Let's calculate the total number of hours a student has been playing the guitar over a period of three months based on the following information.

1. Weekly guitar lesson: 45 minutes

2. Daily practice time: 30 minutes

3. Days of practice per week: 5 days

First, let's calculate the weekly practice time:

Weekly Practice Time = Weekly Lesson Time + Daily Practice Time Weekly Practice Time = 45 minutes + (30 minutes/day * 5 days/week) Weekly Practice Time = 45 minutes + 150 minutes/week Weekly Practice Time = 195 minutes/week

Next, let's calculate the monthly practice time:

Monthly Practice Time = Weekly Practice Time 4 weeks/month Monthly Practice Time = 195 minutes/week 4 weeks/month Monthly Practice Time = 780 minutes/month

Finally, let's calculate the total practice time over three months:

Total Practice Time = Monthly Practice Time 3 months Total Practice Time = 780 minutes/month 3 months Total Practice Time = 2340 minutes

Now, let's convert the total practice time from minutes to hours:

Total Practice Time in hours ≈ 2340 minutes ÷ 60 minutes/hour

Total Practice Time in hours ≈ 39 hours

So, over a period of three months, you have been playing the guitar for approximately 39 hours!!!!!!! - Measure your progress again!!! Ask yourself: "Did I, or did I not, make progress in the last 39 hours?"

Hopefully you will now feel better about your progress!!!!!!
