Greetings!We know that each individual minute has
60 seconds. To find out how many seconds are in
75 minutes, we have to apply the same rate as the one we just established (1 minute = 60 seconds)
In this formula, the minute is divided by number of seconds. The x variable represents
seconds in 75 minutes:
Cross multiply the terms:
![(1)(x)=(75)(60)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/chemistry/middle-school/mi7toieuvzdgj2rlxizx647bkhy898uuez.png)
![x=4500](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/chemistry/middle-school/a1pyu8nww48n2jkt4yy12qfulj6la3z77n.png)
Therefore, there are
4500 seconds in
75 minutes I hope this helped!
