Task 10

As shown above in the tables, not only do I have more classes than David, but also the duration of my
classes and the overall time I spend on classes weekly is 0.5 and 2.5 hours more than him, respectively. I
start my day earlier in the morning and finish later than him every day. He has fewer hours for self-
study, however, He has got more time for Maths and Principles compared to me. I do not have as many
hours as he does for communications per week.
