I got the same question because this question appeared twice, once in each case study in Practice Exam #2. My real test is coming up in a few days… Any insight would be super helpful. Thank you so much @coachdarionziegler! ---

I have same issue. There are two same questions in two case study. Both of them using 595 hours to solve. I could not able to find the number and could not able to locate where the number come from. Any update for these questions? ---

I was not able to locate the origin of the 595 but I had a more math-incline friend get it right without the whole 595. The process was to divide the 50% by the 8 weeks to get the 6.25%/week pace. Since it is now 13 weeks, 6.25%\*13 weeks = 81.25%. 100%-81.25% = 18.75% or ~19%. Personally I found the question to be convoluted. ---

I did a same way to solve the question. I just want to make sure works every situations. ---

I was also stumped on this question - this Exam (Form 2) had several issues and typos…I’m hoping this get’s resolved for the sake of others! ---

I’m really glad this isn’t just me. I was so confused by seeing this question twice in Exam #2 and even more confused by the explanation of how to solve it. ---
