Dr. Lewis worked three times as many shifts in February as in January, where she worked 20 shifts. How many shifts did she work in February?

  1. 40 shifts

  2. 60 shifts

  3. 20 shifts

  4. 80 shifts

The correct answer is: 60 shifts

To determine how many shifts Dr. Lewis worked in February, we first consider the information provided about her work in January. She worked 20 shifts in January, and it is stated that she worked three times as many shifts in February as she did in January. To find the number of shifts she worked in February, we multiply the number of shifts from January by 3. Therefore, the calculation is: 20 shifts (January) × 3 = 60 shifts (February). This shows that Dr. Lewis worked 60 shifts in February, which matches the answer provided. The reasoning behind this calculation is based on a simple multiplication that reflects the relationship stated in the problem regarding the number of shifts worked in the two months.
