Answer:

9,000 minutes (150 hours)


Explanation:

You have 3,600 points total; you need to divide it by 2 points.
3,600 ÷ 2 = 1,800


So, now you need to multiply the 1,800 points by 5 minutes.

1,800 × 5 = 9,000


Another way:

You can figure out how long it takes to get 1 point. If 2 points takes 5 minutes, divide 5 by 2.

5 ÷ 2 = 2.5


Now you need to figure out how long it would take to get 3,600 points. If each point takes 2.5 minutes, just multiply.

3,600 × 2.5 = 9,000


It would take 9,000 minutes (which is equivalent to 150 hours) to get to 3,600 points.
