Answer:

6 minutes per entertainment segment

Explanation:

Please write that "3 3 4" as "3 3/4" It's a mixed fraction.

Four commercials would take up how many minutes?

4(3 3/4 min per commercial) = 15 minutes.

subtracting that from the 45 minute total, we get 30 minutes of programming time.

Dividing that by five (5), we get 6 minutes per entertainment segment.
