Answer: They were marching for 32 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation: If you multiply the 4/5 times by 60 minutes (1 hour), then you will get 48 minutes. 48 minutes is the time of the band practice. Once you get that, then multiply that by 2/3 to get the amount of minutes marching. Once you multiply 2/3*48, you will get 32, which is how many minutes they were marching during band practice.
