Question

a 110 minute meeting should have a 10 minute break in the middle of two equal parts. How long after the meeting start should the break begin

Answer 1

After 50 minutes the break will start.

The metting is 110 minutes long. According to the Question the metting have 'a'(only one) break of 10 minutes in between of two equal parts of metting.

so, duration of metting without the break=100 minutes

duration of each part=50 minutes

Now, the break should be after First part which is of 50 minutes.

=> The break should 50 minutes after the starting of metting.

Answer 2

Answer: 24 minutes and 30 seconds after the meeting as started

Explanation:

110 minutes into 2 equal parts = 55 minutes in each section.

In the middle of 55 minutes = subtract the 10 minutes for a break from the 55 minutes that leaves you with 45 minutes. 24 minutes and 30 seconds before and after the 10 minute break.

Total session minutes - 110

Two equal parts of session: 55 minutes in each session

10 minute break in each session: 55-10 =45.

24 minutes and 30 seconds + 10 min break (in middle) + 24 minutes and 30 seconds
