Given:

Kai spends 15% of a school day in science class

he spends 75 minutes in science class

We need to find, how many minutes does he spend in the school

so, let he spend x minutes in the school

so,

15% of x = 75

Solve for x :


\begin{gathered} 15\%\cdot x=75 \\ 0.15\cdot x=75 \\ \\ x=(75)/(0.15)=(7500)/(15)=500 \end{gathered}

so, the answer will be 500 minutes
