Just converting weeks to days.
For example : 5x weeks = 5 * 7 = 35days,
Similarly, 7x weeks = 7x days + x days = 8x days.

Similarly, 7x weeks = 7x days + x days = 8x days.

How is it possible?

This question is incomplete without condition. This 8x formula is applicable only if a number of weeks and days are equal. If a number of weeks and days are not equal the formula will be changed to 7x + y. Hope this will help you guys.

@Kajal.
We are converting X week into days;
Therefore one-week contains 7 days;
So X=7x.
Then they had given x days;
so x+ 7x = 8x.

Question is to calculate total days.
So, x week contain 7x days and add balance days ie, x.
So 7x+x =8x.
So, x week contain 7x days and add balance days ie, x.
So 7x+x =8x.

Suppose x = 2.
Therefore, x weeks and x days.
2 weeks and 2 days.
Total = 16days(14days + 2days).
Hence 8x ~ 8(2) = 16days.
Answer: 8x.
Therefore, x weeks and x days.
2 weeks and 2 days.
Total = 16days(14days + 2days).
Hence 8x ~ 8(2) = 16days.
Answer: 8x.

Hi all, here in question it is given as x weeks x days. So everyone thinks that it as the multiplication of x weeks and x days but here we need to do the addition of x weeks and x days.
So in a week, we have 7 days then x weeks is 7x days
And given x days also in the question.
So 7x+x= 8x.
Simply we have to add the extra days given in the question to the no of weeks.
