Answer: 1 hour 15 minutes
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Laura and Alicia both exercise 5 days a week and that Laura exercises for 30 minutes each day. For the 5 days, she'll exercise for:
= 5 × 30 minutes
= 150 minutes
= 2 hours 30 minutes
Alicia exercises for 45 minutes each day. Fir the 5 days, she'll exercise for:
= 5 × 45 minutes
= 225 minutes
= 3 hours 45 minutes
We then calculate the difference in their exercise per week which will be:
= 3 hours 45 minutes - 2 hours 30 minutes
= 1 hour 15 minutes
