Solution

Step 1: Multiply the number of minutes spent playing games each day by the number of days in a year.

217 minutes/day * 365 days/year = 79205 minutes/year

Step 2: Convert the total minutes to hours.

Since 60 minutes = 1 hour, you divide the total minutes by 60.

79205 minutes ÷ 60 = 1320.08 hours

Step 3: Convert the total hours to days.

Since 24 hours = 1 day, you divide the total hours by 24.

1320.08 hours ÷ 24 = 55 days

So, you spend approximately 55 days of your life playing games on your phone in a year.
