Answer:The average metabolic rate is 25% (6/24)

Explanation:

In this context, metabolic rate represents the fraction of time, out of a 24-hour period, a person allocates to engage in physical activities (ranging from light to vigorous).

Based on the provided information, the time dedicated to physical activities or exercises is as follows:

light activity = 4 hours

tennis = 1.5 hours

running = 0.5 hours

Total = 4 + 1.5 + 0.5 = 6 hours.

total daily time = 24 hours

thus daily metabolic rate = 6 ÷ 24 = 0.25 = 25/100 = 25%

Answer:

The typical metabolic rate for the individual is 4 hours a day

Explanation:

Average metabolic rate = total time spent on daily activities ÷ number of daily activities

total time spent on daily activities = 8 hours + 8 hours + 4 hours + 2 hours + 1.5 hours + 0.5 hours = 24 hours

number of daily activities = 6

Average metabolic rate = 24 hours ÷ 6 = 4 hours daily.
