Hello,

If I have my children in my care 50% of the time for 35 days, and then 35% of the time for 112 days, what percentage of time do I have the kids over the whole period of 147 days?

Real world problem. Appreciate any help!
 
Divide the number of days which you have your children by 147.

The total amount of time you have them is 50% of 35 plus 35% of 112. Divide that by 147 to find the overall percentage.

Since there was more time at 35% than at 50%, I expect the answer to be between the two, and closer to 35% than to 50%. That can be useful as a check of your work.
