Answer:

Do not agree; correct answer is 255 minutes.

Explanation:

1. The ratio of hours to minutes is 1:60. Therefore, to convert hours to minutes, you multiply the number of hours by 60.

2. 4 1/4 is equal to 4.25.

3.
4.25*60=255

4. I do not agree with Kayla as 4 1/4 hours multiplied by 60 minutes for each hour equals 255 minutes instead of 244 minutes.
