You start night shift at 22:00 and finish at 06:00 with a 45-minute break. How many hours do you work? With a 2 decimal point answer

To calculate the total hours worked during the night shift:

1. Start time: 22:00 (10:00 PM)
2. End time: 06:00 (6:00 AM)
3. Break time: 45 minutes = 0.75 hours

The total duration from 22:00 to 06:00 is 8 hours.

Now subtract the break time:

\[
8 \text{ hours} - 0.75 \text{ hours} = 7.25 \text{ hours}
\]

So, you work **7.25 hours**.
