Answer 1

53 minutes.

Explanation:

We have been given that Payton leaves to go on an 85 minute bike ride at 3:27 pm.

Let us find when Payton will finish biking by 85 minutes after 3:27 pm.

Since 85 minutes equals to 1 hour and 25 minutes. 1 hour after 3:27 pm will be 4:27 pm. Now let us add 25 minutes to 4:27 pm.

So Payton will finish biking at 4:(27+25) pm= 4:52 pm.

Payton's family eats dinner at 5:45 pm. Now let us find remaining time between dinner and 4:52 pm.

`\text{Minutes between dinner and finishing bike ride}=5:45 pm- 4:52 pm`

`\text{Minutes between dinner and finishing bike ride}=53`

Therefore, Payton have 53 minutes between finishing her bike ride and eating dinner.
