Question

Mr Corwin gave his students 3 / 4 hour to study for a test. After 1/4 hour, he played a review game for the remaining time. How much time did Mr Corwin spend playing the game?

Answer 1

Mr. Corwin spent 30 minutes playing the review game.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much time Mr. Corwin spent playing the game, we need to subtract the time he used for studying from the total time given. Mr. Corwin gave his students 3/4 hour to study, which is the same as 45 minutes. After 1/4 hour, which is the same as 15 minutes, he played the review game. To find out how much time he spent playing the game, we subtract 15 minutes from 45 minutes:

1. 45 - 15 = 30

Therefore, Mr. Corwin spent 30 minutes playing the game.

Answer 2

First, convert this to minutes.  45 minutes for studying.  After 15 minutes, they played a game.  So, 45-15 = 30.  They played the game for 30 minutes.
