Multiple hours per month by the months per year.
In this case, 15.33333 by 12 = 184

Ralph plays tennis for a total of 184 hours in a year by multiplying his monthly playing time of 15 \frac{1}{3} hours by the number of months in a year. The answer is option D: 184. This was calculated by converting the mixed number to an improper fraction and multiplying by 12 months.
