Average Time Spent on your cell phone per day:
According to phone log,
Since March 19, 77.29 minutes. 77.27 min/26 days=2.97 min/day. (2.97 min/day)(7 day)= 20.81 minutes/week~21 min/week.
We will assume this to be representative of the average time spent on the phone during the school semester.
So,
21 minutes/week during the school semester.
I estimate double that whilst not in school, again assuming the doubled figure to be representative of the average time spent on the phone when not in school.
So,
(21 min/week)(14 week)(2)=588 min
(42 min/week)[52 week-((2)(14 week))]=1008 min
588+1008=1596~1600 min/year
(1600 min/year)(52 week/year)^-1=30.77 min/week~31 min/week.
(31 min/week)/(7 day/week)=4.43 min/day
So a yearly average of 4.43 minutes per day.
