Jasmine's dessert takes 3½ minutes to cook in the microwave.

How many seconds is this?

There are 60 seconds in a minute so three of that would be 180 seconds for the three minutes. But we still have a half left so half of 60 is 30 and 180+30=210 so your total would be 210 seconds in 3
\frac{1}2} minutes.

Hope I helped :)

 The answer will be 210 seconds. 60 X 3 = 180+ 30= 210
