Question

Nate started working out at 1:45 p.m.He spent 1/6 hour warming up,20 minutes on the treadmill, 1/3 hour lifting weights , and 15 minutes cooling down.At what time did Nate finish working out?

Answer 1

2.50 pm cause 1/6 of an hour is 10mins and 1/3 of an hour is 20 mins

Answer 2

Nate started working out at 1:45 p.m.

Time spent on warming up = 1/6 hour

converting hour into minutes

1 hour =60 minutes

1/6 hour = (1/6) *60 = 10 minutes

So time spent in warming up is 10 minutes.

Time spent on treadmill = 20 minutes.

Time spent on weight lifting = 1/3 hour = 20 minutes.

Time spent in cooling down =15 minutes.

Total time spent in working out = time spent in warming up+Time spent on treadmill+Time spent on weight lifting+Time spent in cooling down

So total time spent in working out = 10 min +10min + 20 min +15 min = 65 min

So adding 65 min to 1:45 p.m. , we get 2:50 p.m.

Answer: Nate finished working out at 2:50 p.m.
