HELP I DON"T UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THIS!!!!

Can sombody tell me how to figure this out, the correct answer is 14 hour clock: 5 hrs and 11 hour clock: 4 hours. For the life of me I do not understand how,

How many on duty hours are remaining after the following has been logged (use a scratch sheet of paper if you need to): On duty/not driving: 3 hours Driving: 4 hours Sleeper berth: 8 hours Driving: 7 hours Off duty: 2 hours

14 hour clock: 5 hours 11 hour clock: 4 hours

There is no time remaining on the drivers 11 or 14 hour clocks

14 hour clock: 7 hours 11 hour clock: 6 hours

Both the 11 and 14 hour limits have reset so all hours are now available

IT WOULD APPEAR TO ME YOU HAVE NO TIME LEFT ON EITHER 11 OR 14 HOUR CLOCK AND STILL NEED 2 MORE HOURS IN SLEEPER TO BE LEGAL TO DRIVE AGAIN. CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG. HOS ARE ALSO GONNA DEPEND ON YOUR RECAP TOO I WOULD THINK...
