L Plate Hours Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the L Plate Hours (L) is:

\[ L = T - (S + P) \]

Where:

\( L \) is the L plate hours
\( T \) is the total driving hours
\( S \) is the supervised driving hours
\( P \) is the professional driving hours

Definitions

L Plate Hours (L): The hours of driving practice accumulated by a learner driver under supervision.
Total Driving Hours (T): The total number of hours spent driving.
Supervised Driving Hours (S): The hours spent driving under the supervision of a qualified driver.
Professional Driving Hours (P): The hours spent driving under the instruction of a professional driving instructor.

Example

Let's say the total driving hours (T) is 120, the supervised driving hours (S) is 80, and the professional driving hours (P) is 20. Using the formula:

\[ L = 120 - (80 + 20) \]

We get:

\[ L = 20 \]

So, the L plate hours is 20.
