Elisa took 25 minutes to get dressed and eat breakfast. She listened to music and cleaned her room for 20 minutes. She then read a book for 35 minutes and worked on a model for 50 minutes before going outside to play. In hours and minutes, how much time was spent on all these activities?

Yeah complex..
and 130/60 is 2.1666666
And the person needs it in hours and minutes!
you need to convert decimal or simply do as i did
substract 120min to 130 minutes!

:/ Ok...Don't k**l yourself.

 

\(25+20+35+50\)

\(45+85\)

\(130 \)

Convert to hours...

\(\frac{130}{60} = 21.6(Repeating)\)

 

Hope that helped!

25m+20m+35m+50m = 130m

knowing there is 60 minutes in an hour...

 

130m/60m = 2,... Its 2 hours and something,leave de decimals.

so 2 hours is 2*60m=120m

 

substract the initial time by the 120m that is our complete 2 hours.

130m-120m=10m

so add hours to min we have: 2h10

 

You're welcome wink

Complex: You started OK, but then went astray! How come?

130 minutes/60 minutes=2 hours and 10 minutes. That is it!.
