Question

Pablo is binging his favorite Tv show right before he has to go into work and two hours before he has to go in for his next shift. Assuming it takes about 20 minutes for Pablo to get ready, and each episode his 25 minutes long, how many episodes can Pablo watch before he has to begin getting ready ,

Answer 1

Since he has two hours to get ready = 120 minutes

Assuming it takes 20 minutes for Pablo to get ready, and each episode is 25 minutes long, we can create the following expression:

Let x be the number of episodes he can watch

20+25x=120

25x=120-20

25x=100

x=100/25

x=4

Pablo can watch 4 episodes before he has to begin getting ready.
