•during each workout , he jogged and he rode his bike.
• He rode his bike for 45 minutes each day.
• he worked out for a total of 360 minutes last week

How many minutes did Allen jog each week?

Answer 1

45 times 6 equals 270, 360 minus 270 equals 90, 90 divided by 6 equals 15, he jogged 15 everyday.

Answer 2

If Allen rode his bike for 45 minutes 6 times, he rode 270 minutes.  Thus, he spent 360-270=90 minutes jogging.
