A village in Maharashtra has 120 households. If each household participates in a weekly Seva activity organized by a local saint, and each activity requires 20 minutes of volunteer work from every household, calculate the total minutes of community service contributed in one month (4 weeks).
Answer
9600 minutes
The correct answer is 9600 minutes — 3. Conclude that the total is 9600 minutes.
Step-by-step solution

- 2. Multiply by 4 weeks for a month: 2400 × 4 = 9600 minutes.
- 3. Conclude that the total is 9600 minutes.
