Answer: A, 63 minutes

Explanation:

We can start by making this into two ratios. Isa finished 30% in 27 minutes, so 30/27 is our first ratio. We want to know how long it will take for the rest of the homework to be completed. 30% is finished already, which leaves 70% (100-30=70). The time left is x. Our second ratio is 70/x. Now, we can set the two ratios equal to each other to solve for x.


(30)/(27) = (70)/(x)

We can now cross multiply.


30x= 27(70)

Now, we simplify the right side.


30x= 1890

Divide both sides by 30 to isolate x.


x= 63

And there's your answer! Hope this helped!
