A work sampling study is to be conducted on rush-hour traffic (4:00 p.m. to 6:59 p.m.) five days per week. The study will encompass 40 days. Determine the day, hour, and minute for 10 observations using the following procedure and table.
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | |
| 1 | 6912 | 7264 | 2801 | 8901 | 4627 | 8387 |

| 4 | 1632 | 1546 | 1950 | 1844 | 1123 | 1908 |
| 5 | 8510 | 7209 | 0938 | 2376 | 0120 | 4237 |
| 6 | 3950 | 1328 | 7343 | 6083 | 2108 | 2044 |
| 7 | 7871 | 7752 | 0521 | 8511 | 3956 | 3957 |

| 11 | 0508 | 1640 | 2768 | 4666 | 9530 | 3352 |
| 12 | 2951 | 0131 | 4359 | 3095 | 4421 | 3018 |
Read two-digit numbers going down the first two digits of column 5 (e.g., 46 20 38 . . .), and then down the second two digits of that column (e.g., 27 93 56 . . .) for days.
For hours, read one-digit numbers going from left to right across row 1 and then across row 2. (Read only 4s, 5s, and 6s.)
For minutes, read two-digit numbers going down column 6, first using the last two digits (e.g., 87 17 64 . . .), and, after exhausting those numbers, repeat using the first two digits of that column (e.g., 83 46 00 19 . . .).
Arrange your times chronologically by day, then hour, and then minute.
